A dedicated yoga practitioner himself, Sturman's work has increasingly focused on capturing the timeless grace and embodied mindfulness of asana. His portraits, whether set in the lively streets of Manhattan, the expansiveness of Malibu's beaches and canyons, the timeless elegance of Walden's New England, or the bleakness of San Quentin Prison, remind us that there is beauty everywhere. In Sturman's own words "I often think of Rumi: 'I can't stop pointing to the beauty.' That feels right to me." ......

      That made me laugh. I think it's an easier fight to not pay too much attention (that's what I concluded.) It seems more practical (at least for myself) to use my time enjoying, being enchanted, and celebrating what I love by making Art of it, rather than engaging in the irrational argument occurring on internet. In the end, if it was Art, it will be cherished and remembered. The arguments will fade away and the Art will go on living.
