Fotolia made the news with the TEN Project from December 2011 to September 2012. The goal was to democratise digital art by bringing together in a common project, for the very first time, « digital art » « graphic resources » and « education ». For this second Season, Fotolia introduces 10 famous international artists and their work, plus 2 special editions kept secret for now. These authors were invited to express themselves on a free theme, and to share their tips and secrets with the web community, thanks to the PSD files they offer for free, every month for 24h. Argentinian Digital artist Gustavo Brigante will open Season 2 of the TEN Operation with an artwork composed around the work theme.
