The Artist Magazine

The July edition of The Artist dives into a rich collection of inspiring features celebrating contemporary painting, botanical art and creative mindfulness. Discover Rupert Brooks’ captivating still lifes and portraits that transform everyday moments into poetic studies of light and atmosphere, before stepping into the expressive world of Joanna Commings, whose intuitive approach to abstraction blurs the line between landscape and emotion. Watercolour artist Catherine Beale also shares innovative techniques for developing more complex compositions through the art of negative painting, offering readers fresh ways to rethink colour, light and form. Packed with artist interviews, practical advice and uplifting creative insight, this section of the magazine is designed to inspire artists of every level to explore new ideas and deepen their artistic practice.
