Polly Taylor Designs: Affordable Art Fair

I recently visited the Affordable Art Fair in Battersea Park wanted to share with you my favourites from the show. I think it's a great idea to have this kind of event - art for everyone. The only problem is the organisers definition of 'affordable' is between £40-£4,000.

This got me thinking about how much I would spend on art. Of course it depends what my income was at the time, but I came to the conclusion that if I really, really loved something, I would be prepared to pay whatever I could spare for it.

So here's a small sample of what's on offer at the show, make sure you don't miss it next year! Even if you're not buying it's a great place to absorb and collect inspiration.

Richard Peacock:

Couldn't find the piece of his I liked best online but this shows the artists amazing screen-printing ability

Emma Moxey:

Dragica Carlin:

Love this piece, though i find it hard to say why! I think it's the layering effect, that the grey coming in from the left seems so totally part of something else, some other picture that has invaded.
