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.

I think this is an evolution from the other one. The simmetry can hurt a little, but is a good work.

Ooooo, I like this one even better than the first! I'm glad your clever eye thought to rescue this stuff, because these are wonderful pieces.

Usurer is still in my (short) fave artist list... he had these great 2D creatures. Anyway, I like the overall design of the image, the large pieces of "some color" (I'm colorblind, so I won't start guessing the color). As far as the... thing... it looks like a creature, but of course I'm dead-wrong ;]
Usurer
Sir, I do stand humbled to your tribute. And with mention of the great Lynch I am honored. It dose kinda bother me that this dedication and my absence here could suggest that I am dead, but not yet ;) Seriously thank you for keeping me in memory. I hope that sooner I'll use my new techniques and get back to creating more often and get back to the community. This work reminds me of the time I first saw your genius and of course it's awesome. Cheers!
