CELEBRATING THE SPORTS ART OF PAUL MILOSEVICH

CELEBRATING THE SPORTS ART OF PAUL MILOSEVICH, May 2001, SWC

“My search for other horizons has led me around again to my first one.”
Paul Milosevich, Out of the Ordinary: The Art of Paul Milosevich

Growing up on a farm in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains, Paul Milosevich first gained an appreciation for the game of golf as a caddy near his home. An avid golfer himself, Milosevich began sketching golf subjects in the 1940s but it was not until the 1980s that he considered the possibilities of becoming a “golf artist.” A professional tournament in Austin, Texas rekindled his own desire to play the game and to sketch the heroes of the sport.

Milosevich’s work reflects a diversity of subjects scattered across the Southwest, imbued with the artist’s keen understanding of light and shadow, and the nuances of human expression vividly expressed in his portraits. A former professor of art at Texas Tech University and longtime resident of Lubbock, Milosevich now resides in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
