THE GUIDE ARTISTS ®

The Guide Artists Magazine . Issue 90 · May 15 2026 . Print Version We continue May with Eduardo Landa on the cover of The Guide Artists, an artist who understands painting as an autonomous language, free from literal explanation. His work invites the viewer to approach each image without external guidance, allowing the painting itself to speak through its visual and emotional presence. For Eduardo, words often arrive as an excess. By avoiding decipherable titles and direct interpretations, he defends a more honest encounter between artwork and viewer, one shaped by personal perception rather than imposed discourse. In a time when statements, visibility strategies, and constructed personas often overshadow the work itself, Eduardo Landa’s position becomes an act of creative integrity. His painting reminds us that the true substance of art does not always reside in what is said about it, but in what it awakens in those who stand before it. @3duard01anda Order Now! theguideartists.com Discovering and presenting the finest artists of our era. #theguideartists #onthecover #eduardolanda #art #theguideartistsmagazine

In June, we will launch our new catalogue for collectors, a publication that we regularly send to our clients, galleries, art brands, museums, and interior design stores in different countries. This catalogue will be released each season, and we are delighted to share how beautifully it has come together.

At The Guide Artists, we believe in a different way of supporting artists. Guided by our slogan, “Discovering and presenting the finest artists of our era,” we work to stay close to each creator, their work, and their artistic vision. Our mission is not only to showcase art, but to build a serious, aesthetic, and professional platform where both established and emerging artists can find new opportunities. We want to be part of tomorrow’s change by offering real visibility, international promotion, and a more refined way of connecting art with collectors, galleries, brands, museums, and specialized spaces. With the wonderful cover by Ricardo Fernández Ortega, we will present paintings and sculptures by the following artists: César Alejandro Sánchez, David Cervantes, Diego Lago, Edith Ruiz, Elleny Gherghe, Emiliano Lovera, Halee Roth, Jara Marzulli, Karolina Rosolek, Krysia González, Manuel Martí Moreno, Melissa Antúnez, Susana Ragel, Terin Dumas, Tomás Carlos Ortolani, Vicente Stephens, Zayda Anahí Ascencio Pérez, C.Leg, Panos Kampylis, Lara Hochreiter, Hiroshi Hayakawa, and many more.

THE CREATIVE ROOM Today we discover Dylan Lisle @dylanlisleart Today in The Creative Room, we discover Dylan Lisle, a British figurative painter based at 1853 Studios in Oldham. Rooted in classical painting techniques and influenced by the dark atmosphere of Baroque art, Lisle explores folklore, mythology, and traditional narratives as spaces of moral memory and symbolic reflection. His work reflects on the fragile relationship between inherited wisdom and the values of our digital age, opening a dialogue between ancient narratives and human experience. Through powerful figurative painting, Dylan Lisle invites us to look again at the wisdom hidden within ancient stories.

EVERY ISSUE REBORN In our Issue 89 · May 2026, as part of our 10th Anniversary Special, we return to an interview that belongs to the editorial memory of The Guide Artists: Fletcher Sibthorp @fletchersibthorp and Megan Elizabeth Read @mae.read Over these ten years, each issue has been more than a publication. It has been a way of looking, selecting, and presenting artists with a distinctive voice, while carefully honoring the color, print quality, and visual presence of each work. Some images remain because of their beauty. Others because they defined a moment. The most important ones do both.

WHERE FLIGHT BEGINS Editor’s Letter | ISSUE 89 MAY 2026 Throughout the history of painting, wings have been far more than an aesthetic or narrative device. They are a lasting metaphor, a symbol that crosses cultures, periods, and styles, carrying meanings that move from the divine to the deeply human. To speak of wings in art is, in many ways, to speak of freedom: the desire to transcend the limits that define us. In classical painting, wings often belong to angels, messengers between the earthly and the celestial. Their presence suggests purity, elevation, and connection with the unreachable. Yet even in these serene images, there is tension: wings do not only lift, they also separate. The winged figure no longer fully belongs to the human world. The freedom they embody also implies renunciation. Over time, artists transformed this symbol to explore new dimensions. Wings were no longer exclusively divine; they began to appear on human, hybrid, or fragmented figures. In these works, they no longer represent a given condition, but a desire. Wings may be broken, heavy, incomplete, or only beginning to emerge. Freedom ceases to be a certainty and becomes a struggle. In contemporary art, wings can appear decontextualized, ironic, or even absent. A body without wings can speak as powerfully about freedom as one that possesses them. Absence becomes discourse: what does it mean to be unable to fly in a world that constantly promises possibility? Perhaps wings remain relevant because they do not speak only of escape, but of the complexity of wanting to escape. Freedom, like wings in painting, is not a fixed state. It is a constant tension between the impulse to rise and the weight of what binds us. Ultimately, wings invite us to ask not only whether we can fly, but where we want to fly and what we are willing to leave behind. Their true power lies there: not as a symbol of idealized freedom, but as a reflection of our eternal negotiation with it.

OUT NOW READERS! The Guide Artists Magazine . Issue 89 · May 8 2026 . Print Version We begin May with Lisa Rickard on the cover of The Guide Artists, an artist who brings together the tradition of classical painting with a deeply personal vision. Her work builds a visual language in which symbolism is no longer merely an aesthetic element, but becomes an emotional, poetic, and spiritual experience. In her paintings, Lisa Rickard takes wings beyond the decorative or narrative. She transforms them into an open reflection on freedom. Traditionally associated with the divine, wings have represented elevation, purity, and the unreachable, but also distance, renunciation, and the tension between two worlds. The artist recovers this imagery and reinterprets it through an intimate sensibility, where the spiritual and the human coexist within the same territory of beauty, silence, and uncertainty. But this issue does not stop with a single voice. Throughout the magazine, we also bring together other artists who expand this dialogue through different languages, techniques, and sensibilities, enriching an edition defined by the diversity of perspectives and the strength of each individual proposal. Painting, drawing, experimentation, and visual narrative coexist in a selection that defends the unique identity of each creator. This is how we begin May with a question that runs through the entire edition: where does flight truly begin? Perhaps not in the wings themselves, but in the ability to imagine it, and in the persistence of those who, through art, continue searching for new ways to elevate the gaze.

Benito García presents a visual universe where realism, magical realism, architecture, and poetic imagination come together with remarkable sensitivity. His work transforms everyday scenes into spaces of silence, mystery, and emotional depth. @benitogpp Through carefully constructed compositions, García creates images that feel suspended between reality and dream. Architecture, light, memory, and symbolism become essential elements in his paintings, opening a contemplative dialogue with the viewer. His artistic language reveals a refined sense of balance and atmosphere, where each figure, object, and space seems to hold an inner narrative. Rather than simply representing the visible world, García invites us to enter a more intimate dimension shaped by thought, emotion, and imagination. In this new issue, The Guide Artists is pleased to present Benito García, an emerging voice whose work reflects the poetic power of figurative art and the enduring capacity of painting to create worlds of meaning.
