How women and the Sound of Sleat were the inspirations for Jon Schueler's life and work

As an American Abstract Expressionist and early protégé of Castelli, Jon Schueler () lived and worked among America’s best: Rothko, Frankenthaler, Pollock, De Kooning, Still and Johns. Yet it was not America that fired his soul. Scottish Hebridean skies were central to his inspiration.

Schueler’s first-hand accounts of New York’s s Bohemian art scene—the gossip, prices, rivalries, divorces and affairs; its jazz and literature—are fascinating, but the book’s unique aspect is the honest self-portrait of a man “slugging only at the devils in myself”, as he sets about “rending veil after veil of self-deception”.

The bedtime before I was convinced he forgot about me because I hadn’t heard a peep regarding the meeting time and place for the following diurnal. Finally I messaged him at am (my Vodafone chip just ran outta minutes earlier that day!) after my exciting adventure earlier that evening. I’m a planner and I discover that Àdhamh is a little more laid back as he texts me with a am confirmation shortly thereafter. Gotta get to sleep!
