It's Art's fault...seriously!

Don’t think about making art, just get it done.  Let everyone else decide if it’s good or bad, whether they love it or hate it.  While they are deciding, make even more art.” Andy Warhol



By now, you'd have probably gathered that I am a lover of Art and Creativity. As well as devising my own, I appreciate what others create and share.
So, I was extremely fortunate when my good friend Sonja gifted me a VIP pass for the recent Photo London event. It's fair to say modern society uses images to document virtually every aspect of daily life, therefore it makes sense for there to be an exhibition!

Now in its second year, Photo London was held (mainly) at Somerset House and featured works from over 80 artists and galleries from around the world. The amount of works was just so vast, I ended up going four times (twice with friends). 


A week since, I would go as far to say my mind and soul feels 'full' after this event - not only from the pieces I got to view but also from making time out of my busy schedule to attend in the first place. There is certainly a romanticism about soaking up art in peace as the rest of the city continues along in its speedy fashion. Also, because art is so subjective it can be enjoyed by many people from different walks of life.

Anyways, enough words! Just enjoy some of the many, many images.....you're welcome!
