Top image searches recently have been trying to get images that are bold, different and creative. Searches for "rebellious" and "bold choices" were up 200 percent and 300 percent this year. With so

much on the internet, people are looking to stand out more than ever. Getty even reported that we are in the new "Age of the Strange." So, visually, let your

freak flag fly!

Anything with clean lines, golden sunshine, and a hint of living peacefully make up another big trend. Divine living features ideas of staying green, living simply, and finding the God

given beauty of the world. You might see more photos with an ethereal quality. So, bust out your filters and get those sunrise pics, and your Instagram will be all

the rage.

On the totally the other side of the spectrum is messthetics, finding the beauty in the messy, weird, or awkward. Searches for "messy floor" went up 1224 percent this year! Now's

the perfect time to be a slob and tell everyone you're doing it for the art.

Minimalism is returning in a big way. Similar to divine living with a focus on simpler things, people are looking for less in their art. Instead of trying to stand out by

being weird and strange, some are looking to separate from the pack by simplifying. The Apple Store is a great example of this. With so much information and technology, they

don't want to overstimulate you with their look. So, visually, they stay sleek and refined. 

Technology is ever advancing and people are looking to include that in the visual mediums. Searches for the phrase "wearable technology" went up 11, 765 percent last year! This is for sure the

future, with VR suits designed for gaming to fitness trackers, technology is a full part of our lives and our art with only reflect that more and more.
