Our Story

The New Zealand Artists Magazine, trading as AOTEAROA ARTIST is a bi-monthly magazine focused on fine and visual artists all over New Zealand. With 'How-To' articles on all aspects of fine and visual art, this is a magazine for veteran artists who have been in the industry for a long time and artists who are just finding their feet in the art community. We showcase what artists all around New Zealand are doing with their art, their inspirations, techniques and advice for younger artists. AOTEAROA ARTIST has been created to fill a much needed gap in the market.

Our key objective is to provide a forum that will introduce New Zealand artists to the country at large, to visitors, prospective customers, galleries and the like. Our magazine is friendly, readable, interesting, helpful, topical and relevant.
