63 Arts: What It Really Means for Artists in Pembrokeshire

When people say 63 arts, a broad term referencing the diverse creative practices in Pembrokeshire’s art community. Also known as local art forms, it includes everything from oil landscapes to digital sketches, printmaking, and public installations. This isn’t just a number—it’s a snapshot of what’s happening right now in Welsh studios, galleries, and coastal studios where artists are pushing boundaries.

Landscape painting, a core focus in Pembrokeshire’s art scene thanks to its dramatic coastlines and rolling hills shows up again and again in these posts. You’ll find guides on how to build depth with foreground, middle ground, and background—not just theory, but real steps you can take with oil or acrylics. Then there’s digital art, a growing field where artists use tablets, software, and online platforms to create and sell work. People still ask if it’s "real art," but the evidence is clear: museums are collecting it, Etsy sellers are making money from it, and tools like the iPad Pro and Wacom Cintiq are now standard in Pembrokeshire studios.

And if you’ve ever wondered how to get your work seen, art exhibition, the traditional gateway for artists to reach buyers and critics is covered too. From submission checklists to understanding the difference between an art fair and a gallery show, you’ll find what works and what doesn’t. Plus, once your piece is accepted, you’ll need to think about art prints, how to turn originals into high-quality, sellable copies using giclée printing and proper color management. It’s not magic—it’s a process, and the posts break it down step by step.

What You’ll Find in This Collection

You won’t find fluff here. Just clear, practical advice from artists who’ve been there: how to pick the right print size for Etsy, whether olive oil can replace linseed oil (spoiler: don’t), how to sketch in galleries without breaking rules, and why abstract art isn’t about lacking skill—it’s about mastering something else entirely. Whether you’re a beginner trying to paint your first landscape or an experienced artist looking to monetize digital work, this collection gives you the tools—not the hype.
