Curated By Artists

With gifting season upon us, we thought it would be interesting to invite a few artists to share their Christmas Art Wishlist..

Welcome to What Artists Like, an artist-led series, created and edited by Masters Artist Nicola Wiltshire that shines a fresh light on the New Blood Art collection. Featuring interviews with artists and curated collections, with each Guest Curator nominating the next.

“As the artist, being able to put a state of being, thinking or rethinking into a material process was the challenge. I think if it holds any weight, it is due to it’s authenticity. People relate to people. I create from my own emotion and experiences, but you will view them with your own”. – Evie Mae

“The new blue paintings I made for New Blood are about a light blue I recently bought, old holland blue grey. It makes everything feel like it’s underwater. I had to play with it for a few weeks before the penny dropped on how to use it as I wanted.” – Charlotte Brisland

“I’ve found it hard to choose, there’s a lot of great work and interesting artists on the NBA site! It’s so important for artists to have this platform, to be able to start selling and get the confidence to continue. Thanks to Sarah, NBA and all the people who support us by buying art.” – Orlanda Broom

“I selected them very intuitively but they are all earthy/figurative with some existentialism and a little playfulness.” – Colette LaVette

This week Nicola delves into the evocative world of Guest Curator Olivia Mansfield, who was nominated by painter Tia Taylor Berry.

This week we step inside the mind of multi-faceted Masters Artist, Tia Taylor Berry.
