Jim Tetlow
Born 1974, UK
I like ambiguity in art. Uncertainty. What has to conform to the limits of our reality? Metal, glass and flesh can merge seamlessly, as if the surreal worlds and the life forms within are one and the same, and yet at odds sometimes. I rarely seek to endow my works with any "message". I am more interested in people's personal responses.
I'm a multimedia artist working in fine art (including sculpture), digital art, graphic design and various forms inbetween, also illustrating book covers and numerous CD covers. I also work in musical soundscaping, both solo and in group projects, of which there are many releases. I'd like to say a big thanks to everyone here who has supported me in my work and beyond since I began posting in June 2001. Too many to mention, you all know who you are... I'm meeting very special people here :-)
Update 01-08-05: I've been given a 4 page feature article in Issue 3 of the new media magazine Contour based in Atlanta, Georgia. The images printed very well and they did me proud.
Update 21-03-06: I've been spending the last 6 months living in New South Wales, Australia. Inspiring place! Also in the process of illustrating the book covers for a series of Japanese books called Hikishio no Toki (Time of the Ebb Tide) by Mayumura Taku - to date I've completed the first two of the five volumes. I've recently been returning to traditional media as well as producing the usual digital art, and contributed a sculptural canvas to a recent local exhibition. Link: Saatchi Gallery webspace
Update 09-01-21: I hadn't even logged in for some years. It's weird nipping back here after not even posting for 13 years, like revisiting your old school incognito. As I'm not active here anymore I wonder if anyone will even see this again besides me.

Unlike the colors I usually see. Beautiful mellow feel to this wonderful visual gift. Thank you Jim. I know the feeling of a Christmas in heat. I grew up in California and we never had anything but sun and an occasional small amount of rain. Kind of hard watching TV shows of snowy Christmas scenes, but never seeing snow outdoors. A very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year Jim. Maybe you can catch Santa in his speedo and surfboard. :D Hugs, Suzanne

It's like something's burning there - maybe the air! lol A really beautiful photo, Jim! And delightful - seen from here, cold and dark North. I have to second Bev: enjoy your Christmas in the sun! :-)

It looks as though you tinted the sky for this. A truly dramatic shot!Sorry, I still haven't prepared an Xmas image, so I'll take this opportunity to wish everyone a fun-packed Christmas and dreams-come-true new year! (Xmas DVD: Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Recently issued in Japan!)

It looks like a generic gradient filter over the lens, I know, as I had one of those for my old SLR. Promise you though, the sky really was this colour, I didn't do a single thing to this image ;-)
