Tim Seaward the artist - Interview (Page 3)

9. What is the future of your style, how is it going to develop?

My answer is really the same answer as in question 7 ... however, I desire that my linear style allow me to progress from the apparent abitrary lines on paper - to three dimensional pieces produced in wire ... or something perhaps more organic - such as vines (or other materials ... which are secret - for now ... but may be revealed soon!)

10. What are you working on at the moment?

Graphic Linear experiments based upon more intensive meditations upon specific spiritual encounters ... I am also looking into shamanic drawings as a means of making the works affect the viewer.

11. What tips do you have for other artists who want to get started?

The same advise I was given when I met an old polish artist in my twenty's. He was very, very prolific! His advise to me was: "If you want to be a real artist then the path is simple for you ... WORK! Even when you do not want to work ... WORK! When you are sick ... WORK! When you are tired ... WORK! When you feel there is absolutely no artistic merit within you ... WORK! WORK! WORK! If you work ALL the time then it will eventually happen that you wil not be able to STOP working!" It is THEN that I believe you truly start to take the dangerous steps towards the labyrinth (that is the labyrinth of creativity OR madness ... and probably a bit of both).

12. What have you done to promote yourself as an artist?

Walked about London with a portfolio of work (almost EVERYBODY I saw appeared to HATE my work ... notice I said "almost"); entered my works into numerous open exhibitions; took examples of my works around galleries; joined various art groups; more recently produced my own art gallery website promoting my work; I am now producing a CD with examples of my work, my philosophy, my CV ... and sending them to specific galleries here in France (in preparation to sending them to other european places); Joining as many art societies as I can (France is well known for its positive attitude towards belonging to societies); I have opened my studio to the public and I am now publicising the fact by giving posters to anyone who will listen ... in France the grapevine works very well - be it the local baker, bistro, pharmacy ...

13. What do you do in your spare time e.g. hobbies?

Collapse! Actually I enjoy watching films ... and when I can a walk in the countryside around here is very relaxing, very enjoyable ... and very, VERY beautiful ... oh, and I truly delight in the culinary flavours of ... wild food plants and funghi!!

Pablo Picasso short biography

Pablo Ruiz Picasso was an artist, sculptor, printmaker, stage designer and ceramicist. He is widely regarded as the greatest painter of the 20th Century, and it was his revolutionary idea for a new departure in painting - Cubism - that triggered the very early awakenings of the modernist movement...
