The Artist  |  December 2016
Be inspired by this month's cover artist David Curtis' stunning demonstration showing why and how he paints railway stations, as well as award-winning wildlife artist Gunnar Tryggmo's insights into his working practices both out in the field and in the studio. Our practical articles contain something for all practising artists everywhere, including how to paint flowers in oils alla prima, cats in watercolour and landscapes in mixed media using marker pens for impact and effect. Plus our contributing team of professional artists and tutors offer advice and tips on colour mixing for figure painting, how to keep your watercolours fresh, how to alter a painting digitally, the questions to ask yourself to help you choose the right brush for your painting style, and how to scale up a composition to create a show-stopper painting for an exhibition. And for the ideal Christmas gift for an artist friend or family member, don't miss our special print subscription offer including a choice of art materials supplied by Jackson's, on pages 70-71!
