#178 In the studio: Creatures in motion con't . . .

Painter Richard Schmid interpreted 

Mallard Duet in conte and oils 

The sculptor must be in search of the essence of motion and 

form and understand how the creature's body works.

A work of art must not be something 

that leaves the viewer unmoved . . .

something passed by with a casual glance.  

It has to be moving, make the viewer react, 

feel strongly, start creating too . . .

if only in the imagination.
