Editorial
Deconstructing the solitary image often associated with painters, Nik Sheehan’s intimate snapshot of a beloved mentor perceives the act of drawing as a radical form of communal dialogue. Here, art-making promises freedom of the mind, yet it also requires extraordinary discipline and compromises.
