I suppose it was roughly summer of 1992 when I went to spend a few weeks with my father and stumbled on my favorite artist to date. There on the foot stool set the book "A Collaboration With Nature"...

Andy Goldsworthy works in a medium which reflects my own artistic sensibilities - arranging and displaying those objects which he finds in nature Andy draws our attention to the insight and beauty that is all around us and of which we are in fact a part.
In the world of human beings today, there is so much effort to create structure and order, the work of this great artist helps to remind us that no struggle is necessary, everything that we are and are to become is a natural process leading from elegant simple beauty to elegant simple beauty...
I encourage anyone who may be touched by this artists work to engage further by enjoying the recent film, "Rivers and Tides". This film is a documentary piece and a wonderful introduction to Andy Goldsworthy and his work.
