 Not for the beginner December 23, 2006
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
This is my favorite artist magazine and has been for some time. I much prefer it to Artist, if only for covering so many media each issue. Admittedly, it is not the best option for the beginner, although some of the books published by International Artist are good for novices or those picking up a new medium. And, like any magazine I've ever read, some issues are better than others. The reproductions are of a consistently high standard.
The International Artists Magazine September 11, 2006

It's a joy to see this publication in the mail box. There is some article of interest for every artist no matter their choice of medium. Great colorful pages of art & interviews by artists all over the world. If I could choose only one, International Artist would be "it".
 NOT ENOUGH TECHNIQUE DETAIL February 24, 2006

The pantings are nice and colorful and mostly in oil but not enough technique shown to really be of help.
 mixes editorial content and commerce November 8, 2005

I bought a copy of this magazine and initially enjoyed a great deal of it, but ultimately found it distasteful. It was graphically hyperactive, which became distracting and irritating, and there was something else that didn't seem quite right, though at first I couldn't identify just what that was. Eventually I realized that it wasn't making a clear distinction between the editorial content and commerce (items offered by companies advertizing in the magazine, workshops sponsored by the magazine, books sold by the publisher of the magazine). Eventually I figured out that the publisher was Australian. If Rupert Murdoch is any guide, then this magazine is coming from a tradition that doesn't respect boundaries between journalism and financial gain. I ended up putting this magazine aside in distaste.

Each issue of this 'magazine' is full of exquisite art, displayed in amazing color. From beginning to end, it is a feast for the eyes. If that were all International Artist contained, it would still be a treasure, but each issue also has numerous demonstrations by some of the finest artists in the world. I have read all of the usual artist magazines - and have subscribed to several - but I haven't seen this quality of art or art technique articles in any of them. It really is astonishing. As I read each issue I wonder if they can possibly maintain the content quality, but each new issue seems to surpass the last. My only regret is that the magazine comes out only six times a year. But it is well worth waiting for. If you are an artist, don't miss this. If you simply enjoy fine artwork, I think you will be equally impressed.
By the way, this publisher also has a line of art instruction books that are some of the finest I have seen. You can find them on Amazon as well as at the publishers web site. I have four right now, and have my sights on several more.
