These articles define artists' skills and techniques, share details of artists' personalities and experience, and provide insight into their art. We also publish authoritative and thematic pieces on art history or current art trends, and about groups of artists who share the same medium, location, style, nationality, etc. Read a current issue of the magazine, scan back issues, and refer to our annual editorial index to learn more about the range of subjects we cover, what we have addressed recently, and typical topics and lengths of articles. Writing for Wildlife Art Articles must be original, accurate, timely, educational, memorable, and entertaining to our readers. We are looking for dynamic, evocative art and articles that cover new treatments or familiar issues from a new angle.
Good writing is essential.
We want to take our readers on a journey of words and images that reveals the thoughts, techniques, and styles of present-day and historical artists who depict nature. You should be able to describe works of art with clarity and perception, and use insight to assess the place of the artists in the field - but we don't want academic criticism. What we do want is lively, knowledgeable writing that places art and artists in context and helps readers judge for themselves. Biographical highlights of an artist's life can be included, but should not be overemphasized - the art should be at the core of the piece. The in-depth articles should examine what artists are trying to communicate and the techniques they employ to accomplish this end.
