A Tribute to Tony Hart

Tony Hart - the man who inspired a generation of artists, died yesterday. His enthusiasm for all genres of art was infectious - He was instrumental in building the foundation for the artist/animator, I am today. He was the best sort of teacher - one who shows you a technique; then encourages you to take it to the next level.
One of my fondest memories of childhood was seeing a piece of art; I created; displayed on tv - in the gallery section of Hart Beat - you will be missed, RIP Tony.
