New discovery

I have just been having a look through the etsy UK blog to see whats happening around the UK and discovered an amazing 'Land artist' called Richard Shilling, who happens to be based in the same town as me. I was drawn to his work first and discovered this location conection after I'd fallen in love!
Do have a look at his blog and flickr page both a real inspiration.

  5. He is kind of copying Andy Goldsworthy's work. Or he is at least being really, really influenced by Andy's work ;)

  7. Id say being really influenced by Andy Goldsworthy rather than copying! and hes out there doing it for real which has to be a good thing.

  9. Ok Jenny let's say that he is being really influenced instead of copying Andy's work :) Have you seen any of his work in person? that would be cool!

  11. I've been really enjoying his work for over a year. He is very good at it. I also do think he is influenced by AG, but anyway he tells himself that his work is a hommage to AG, so there is absolutely nothing wrong about it, on the contrary he pays tribute to his work.
