The Artist  |  October 2014
Welcome to two new series in this month's issue: Mike Bernard's three-part series will inspire you to loosen up and discover your own style, while Crawfurd Adamson's first of three articles looks at how to analyse and draw hands accurately. We interview Scottish colourist Jennifer Irvine about her sparkling compositions, while practical articles from Jake Winkle, David Howell and Jean Haines will get watercolourists thinking about new subjects and painting approaches. We test report the new Winsor & Newton Watercolour Sticks, as well as some new papers from Hahnemuhle, and Haidee Jo Summers offers some key advice on how to make photographic references work for you. Peter Graham focuses on still lifes in oils as he prepares for a London exhibition, while Paul Riley demonstrates how to abstract from a still life set up. There's plenty more to inspire, plus we include a FREE 24-page guide to art courses and holidays to help you decide on the right course for you in the coming months.
