![NEW BLOG POST // A Note From the Editor: A Platform to Represent Diversity
"Over the years I have had the pleasure of working with many queer artists, both for the magazine itself and for our curated exhibitions. Being able to connect with the current issue’s cover artist Franz has inspired me to move forward with a wish that the team and I had conceived a little while ago: The September 2023 issue of Beautiful Bizarre Magazine will be our first issue to exclusively feature queer artists and designers! There is no question that LGBTIQA+ folks belong in the spotlight, and that these kinds of spaces are necessary to change heteronormative and non-inclusive narratives in the arts. The September issue next year will be our contribution to celebrate the brilliance of queer visual artists working across styles and media, along with queer artisan fashion designers. So if you are a queer artist or designer, a queer artist couple, or have a friend/family member who is a queer creative, please do email our Social Media Manager Helena at helena@beautifulbizarre.net. This will enable us to curate a truly special queer issue next year. Of course this will also be a wonderful resource for all issues of Beautiful Bizarre Magazine. We look forward to hearing from you!"

Creating a work of art and then releasing it into the world is an act of love.
It requires untold hours of contemplation and artistic tweakery, resulting in the final piece which is tangible proof of an artist's heart, soul, and their very essence.
For those of you who are interested in seeing how a painting like this evolves throughout time and an extensive amount of effort, please take a few moments to scroll through @tony_thielen's process shots (images 2 - 7).
**This is ZOOM-worthy art, so pull out your magnifying glass, please!**
Much respect to the Santa Fe, New Mexico-based artist, who seems to be a stickler for the little details that have imbued this portrait with so much more visual interest and warmth. ♡☺️♡

This fantastic piece called ‘Dwell’ by @jamesthistlethwaite was featured in the online group show ‘Labyrinth of Dreams’ at @wowxwow_art in 2021. The exhibition explored the path of creation resembling “a labyrinthine journey of tangled thoughts, decisions and emotions that frequently arrive at dead ends, leaving the creator with the only option of backing up and trying again.” You can still check out all the featured pieces on the gallery’s website, totally recommended!

‘Climbers’ or ‘The Descent’?
@rolandmikhail never fails to amaze us with his dedication to details and the exceptional intricacy of his compositions. Watching the artist working on his large-scale canvases is almost a meditative process!

Love for textures definitely means love for @eudald_de_juana’s sculptures! The artist’s pieces embrace materiality and a certain rawness that beautifully connects with the nature of each work.
