Issue 21 of Beautiful Bizarre Magazine with Malcolm Liepke‘s incredible painting on the cover is out now! Contact one of our Stockists or Shop Online, but don’t miss this special issue.
Inside Issue 21 you will hear what representational figurative art pioneer Malcolm Liepke has to say about the influence of large galleries/museums and art critics. And learn how social media superstar, and Beautiful Bizarre designer, kelogsloops creates his beautifully detailed watercolours from idea generation to completion in this issue’s Path to Creation.
Even if you can’t read music you can understand and appreciate it. It should be the same thing in the art world; I think it’s important to have knowledge and understanding behind your art.

The most dramatic thing that my work has shown me is that I have a voice. My voice is valuable, strange and unique, and it need not be silenced or hidden, or made to sound more like someone else’s. My voice is powerful – even if I’m the only one who hears it.
Brandi Milne
In our exclusive in-depth interview with Andrea Kowch she reveals how her “metaphorical self-portraits” add to her dreamlike scenes and create a deep sense of nostalgia in her work. We take a close look at Jenny Boot‘s luscious portrait photography and discover her keen eye and serene balance between light and darkness.
