These days, while I visit Paris museums and galleries, admiring the masters, I’m also on the hunt for art and artists with which to decorate my home. During my around the world travels, it was often undiscovered artists that caught my eye, a lacquer painting by a local artist from the village of Hoi An in Vietnam (see below), or a Chilean artist whose work I became enamored with in Santiago. And then there was the Brazilian sculptor in Olinda… and thus began my art collection.
Since I don’t currently travel to these remote lands, I search online. Most recently I discovered incredible abstract drawings by artists from around the world, from a favorite London based gallery, Saatchi! Not to mention paintings by talented emerging artists. A few of my favorites…
nr 185/2 by Henni Van de Lande of Breda, Netherlands
Lovers by Jarek Puczel of Olsztyn, Poland
abstract N° 632 [emerald green] by Koen Lybaert of Geel, Antwerp, Belgium
Through the international site Etsy, I’ve also discovered two artists whose work I admire, one of them a Danish girl living in Paris, and the other a Dutch artist based in Rotterdam.
Springtime by Rikke Clausen of Copenhagen, Denmark
Blue and White Buildings by Ronald Hunter of Rotterdam, Netherlands
The only problem now remains, which artist to add to my collection?
What a beautiful collection of paintings! I love Saatchi as a source too..
Nice collection, thanks for sharing it!
