The Artist Magazine November 2025 Back Issue

This issue is packed with inspiration, insight, and practical advice to fuel your creativity. Caroline Saunders sits down with Christopher Aggs to explore his passion for landscapes and still life, while Paul Talbot-Greaves offers a candid look at the realities of a professional artist’s day. Barry Freeman takes us on his journey from figurative painting to abstraction, and Alan Bickley makes the case for a daily sketching habit.

We also look to the greats as Sarah Edmonds unpacks Mark Rothko’s approach to abstraction, and Mike Barr explains why developing a “signature subject” can be a game-changer. For those navigating the business side of art, Rodney Kingston shares his experiences of going professional, and Kimberley Keegan offers clear, practical advice for running an art business successfully.

On the practical side, Grahame Boothe revisits the works of his early years, Catherine Beale continues her exciting watercolour series by exploring whip lines, and Barry Herniman brings two old favourites to life with the warm tones of autumn.

This is your guide to inspiration, technique, and the artist’s journey – enjoy!
