The Artist  |  April 2021
Welcome to our April issue, packed with inspiration and ideas from our contributing artists to help you practise your techniques and develop your creative skills. Learn from award-winning watercolourist Linda Saul as she shares her approach and working methods, try Jo Pickering's layering and glazing techniques to paint watercolour portraits that glow, while Jake Winkle advises on how to bring your wildlife subjects to life in watercolour. Step-by-step demonstrations will show you how to capture shiny objects in your oil still lifes, create a dramatic landscape in soft pastels, paint trees and woodlands in acrylics, or a countryside scene in gouache and mixed media. Explore the creative possibilities of oil pastels, how to capture your portrait sitter's expression, and why traditional techniques are so important for adding interest to your oil paintings. Plus we include some great advice on how to be your own best critic, sell your work online, as well as a host of opportunities and competitions to enter - everything you will need for another month of painting with The Artist! Enjoy!
