Andy Goldsworthy

So in my art class today, I learned about a new artist who is unbelievable! Whenever I learn about these artists, I ask myself "Where the hell have been?" I feel like I don't know anyone... I always sort of stuck with my favorites. Thats why I love this class so much. It completely broadens my horizon. Anyway, so the artist is Andy Goldsworthy. He is this amazing artist who creates ephemeral art. For those of you who do not know, that means the art does not last forever. Most of his pieces are created in nature so the elements carry them away. Now most people may say, "What's the point?" But if you watch the process, you can easily see it... it is magical. Its as if it is getting carried to another world. I was truly inspired by him, and I could see me doing this in the future with my own art.

Here are some examples of his artwork...
