On monday i was finding it hard to get back into the swing of things after getting back from London and felt really un motivated so on Thursday i went on a trip to Newcastle with Glenn and Zade. We went to see some art at the Outsiders Gallery. The gallery was showing art work by a lot of different artists that are very current and popular. The gallrey was Featuring artists such as: Jonathan Yeo, Invader, Ian Francis, Todd James, Billy Norrby, Mode 2, Mark Jenkins, Interesni Kazki, Brett Amory, Emma Richardson, Shepard Fairey, Know Hope, Sage Vaughn, Charlie Isoe, HUSH, and Oliver Jeffers.
It was a really lovely little gallery and i'd say it was definitely worth the trip. The selection of work on show was great because it was all modern and unique compared to the usual gallery that sells paintings. i really liked all of the art that was shown there, and its really interesting to see how much things sell for. I have also found out that going to see art in real life as opposed to on a computer is a lot more interesting and inspiring because you can see all of the brush strokes and textures that the work has. Here are a few photos of the gallery and my favourite pieces that were on show.

The trip was great and i saw lots of inspiring artists work this work helped me to get inspired and it also helped out a lot with my professional studies work as all of the art work that was shown was current and on trend. As i am writing about trends in my report it should be helpful.
I think i will keep an eye out for up coming exhibitions at this gallery because its a lovely little place.
