Tempes Fugit. Recent Folio Samples

How long has it been? Well over a year. Well, maybe its time I started again. Ive made lots of art since then. Ive moved from my little studio and now have a studio in my garden, a large wooden structure, 16 feet x 10 feet..........its also a workshop as I now have a couple of power saws and a vice on one side of the room, and racks at the end to store my paintings. Shelves contain all my old sketchbooks, which I still refer to for ideas. I cant possibly bring you up to date with all Ive done, so I will just post a few pics of artworks for now, just to get used to doing this blog again. Hope you enjoy.

so this is just a sample of my works. I was told at uni that being diverse was a bad thing, but when you look around at artists who have "made it", they are quite often diverse. There is a Chinese artist, whose name I forget, who employs hundreds of artisans for his projects, and all his projects are diferent.........ranging from painting with ash, to sculptures to rooms within rooms. So Im taking heart from people like him and continuing to make art that Im inpsired to make. Sometimes its just an experiment, but other times they become finished pieces and bear very little in common with previous works. I fail to see how this is wrong. How can anyone contain their imagination? 

so, I havent said this for a while, but...........

Love all, hurt none, and walk in soft shoes

Isi Tart.
