Saatchi Online has launched a new project where 100 curators will select artworks by 10 of the most promising 60,000 artists exhibiting on their website, this began on the 19th July 2012 and continues for 100 days. The purpose of the website is to give artists an international platform to get recognised and sell their work online, without representation. It is also a great place to explore what kind of work is available for purchase! Here are 10 of my favourites…

I have to say I am not a huge fan of modern art I much prefer the old impressionist type of painting

There are many different types of art on the Saatchi site, I bet if you type Impressionist into the search you’ll find something. Personally I go for most works with a good composition, bold colours and an engaging subject. I found this article on Neuroaesthetics really interesting http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg21528732.000-get-the-picture-art-in-the-brain-of-the-beholder.html?full=true

I love the neon light and the relaxing collage, they’re neat. I’d love to own the neon light and have it on my wall…so cool! x
