Yesterday we said farewell to my father-in-law, Terry- Andy’s step dad 💔 and Immy and Errol’s grandad.
Terry was great. He was kind and mischievous and totally equipped to do anything in this world, and I suspect any other. He was a hippy-wizard, loved trees and made art. Most of his paintings feature an eagle 🦅 which is fairly symbolic of his world view and his deep understanding of many things.
I didn’t realise I was doing this but I’ve been documenting his studios for years- they were so fascinating. We even made a film in one whilst he built a huge bonfire for the famous hog-tied naked man scene that showed at L’Oréal Fashion Festival and won a best cinematography award.
Terry loved building teepees and once built one made from recycled tent flys that looked like a kaleidoscope when you were in it. This kind of magical experience is indescribable and one I will always remember.
His absence leaves a large hole in this world to the people that encountered him, but I don’t feel like he’s gone, but more that he’s everywhere. 🧡 I’ll be seeing you Terry x
