The Artist | January 2016
Start the new year with a plan to enter at least one of the open competitions listed in our six-page planner detailing all the major events throughout the year, with the all-important entry deadlines. We also start the first issue of the new year with a couple of challenges for you: paint a seascape in acrylics in 60 minutes with Glyn Macey to help free up your style and follow Paul Talbot-Greaves' exercise to help develop your painting skills. Plus we bring you practical articles on how to paint a family portrait, how to use notan sketches to improve your compositions, advice on working with gouache to paint a still life, how to use Photoshop to develop your creative ideas, how to accentuate your watercolours and how to capture the visual excitement of cascading waterfalls. Our masterclass features the wonderful and ever-popular Trevor Chamberlain, who reveals the secrets of his success, and Paul Brown offers advice for organising your own London exhibition. Enjoy an inspirational start to 2016!
