The Artist | July 2015
As usual we include something for everyone in this issue, no matter what your favourite medium or subject matter. Professional artist Paul Finn reveals the secrets behind his oil landscapes, while Susie Hodge appraises the work of Ravilious and his place in art history. Watercolourists will be inspired by Geoff Hunt's forays outside, Ian Sidaway's suggestions for your watercolour 'failures', Paul Riley's ideas for moving away from strictly representational flower paintings, Hazel Soan's advice for retaining the transparency of your colours, while David Parfitt tests Jackson's new Artist Watercolours. How to make the most of shadows in your summer scenes, drawing wildlife subjects, exercises to help you master the language of art, including animals in acrylic landscapes, using mixed media to capture allotments, airbrushing techniques, going outside with oils, and botanical fantasy painting are also covered by a host of top artist-tutors including Bob Brandt, Jamie Boots, Ann Witheridge and Holly Cawte, Paul Weaver, Janet Mayled, Gerald Green and Billy Showell. Lots to do this month!
