A Must-Have Magazine for the Landscape Painter
One of my favorite magazines is Professional Artist, formerly Art Calendar. In the December issue, on the cover are listed four articles, all very important to the landscape painter: Refine Your Artwork, Master the Art of Critique, Learn to Teach Workshops and Be More Productive.
Also within the magazine are three monthly columns: Coaching the Artist Within, The Photo Guy and Heart to Heart (Are you a 20% artist?) as well as three other interesting articles including Planning Your Art Business (Part 3: Tracking Cash Flow). In the back of the magazine are a bushel of contests, exhibition opportunities, calls to artists by galleries, grants and fellowships, juried shows, publishing opportunities and residencies, some with fees and some without. I find all these articles relevant to me, interesting and thought provoking and the contests interesting to contemplate. Professional Artist comes out ten times per year, costs $37/year and the web site is http://www.professionalartist.com. I wouldn’t be without it! Happy New Year, Everyone!
