saffron art

i love accidental discoveries. there's much more pleasure in the unexpected. expected pleasure always loses its thrill by feeding off itself. yesterday i was doing some research on upcoming indian artists for something at work. everyone i asked for advice, directed me to saffron art. it's a great website, and what started out as a chore quickly turned into a real pleasure.

they sort the art by price or by artist. and you don't really need to login to browse the collection. which is just so convenient. they also have special auctions and exhibitions going on most of the time, but for that you do need to register yourself. they have a huge datebase of artists, including a lovely section on new artists.
some of my favourite discoveries.
