Did you know you that you can send in any art related questions to Leisure Painter and we will get an answer from one of our experts for you? We have added an Art Q&A page to painters-online with examples of questions sent in and the answers provided by some of our regular contributors. There is also a link for you to email us your queries. Your question could appear on the website or even in a future issue of the magazine! Launched in the September issue of Leisure Painter is our latest free painting competition. This paint a portrait competition is an ideal way to spend time with your children or grandchildren over the summer holidays as they need to enter their picture of you too! Click here for more details (you need a copy of the magazine for an entry form). The deadline for entries to The Artist and ROI Open Oil Painting Competition has been extended to September 24th. The winner will have their work exhibited at this year’s ROI annual exhibition in London. See the August and September issues for more details. And don't forget the 'Wish You Were Here!' paint a postcard competition, there is still time to get your postcard sent out. Check out the latest workshops too while there are still places available!
