I learnt about Andy Goldsworthy in year 8 at school and really like his 'temporary art', especially his ice sculpture as the sun shone through it. I think he said that 'the thing that gives it beauty also destroys it' Thanks for the comments and kind words :')

Just as a note, 'made by the sea' would perhaps make more sense as 'made beside the sea' :)
