My first blog

Website launch. Launch to me sounds like something Nasa would be involved in, shame we can’t have a rocket taking off from Southbank to mark the occasion.

The word ‘launch’ has only one letter different from the word ‘lunch’ – one of my very favourite things. Project managing a new website is a bit like dealing with one of those ridiculously long sandwiches that pop up in American cartoons – a bit of an effort to eat, takes a long time but is ultimately extremely satisfying. Except this sandwich sometimes has unexpected ingredients, like a paperclip or dirt, tucked in amongst the tuna and sun-dried tomatoes. And every now and then a chunk of something greasy drops into your lap and ruins your skirt.

Finally though the new website is here and what a thing of delight it is. After a long time of consuming the same dry egg sandwiches (filling but not thrilling), we’ve got a veritable smorgasboard on offer and it is very, very, very exciting. It might not come with a packet of crisps and a fizzy drink yet but we have exciting plans to make it into a very substantial meal indeed.

So tuck in and enjoy – hope you find it satisfying.

Why Blog?
Eyestorm has been the market leader for limited edition prints since the web was in its infancy, so over time we've become pretty opinionated on a bunch of art-related issues. So while we're here to provide you with the best art you can buy, we also wanted a flexible space through which to share our experience of working in the frenetic, ever-accelerating market for contemporary art. So this is it. The Eyestorm blog. Ups, downs, news, views and reviews.
