Talking Miniatures with John Margiotta

This week we’re joined by John Margiotta for a wide-ranging chat on what it takes to build a body of work you’re proud of. We get into the realities of competition painting, including Golden Demon highs and hard lessons, and how choosing the right project can matter as much as execution. John breaks down how he thinks about developing a recognisable style, pushing texture and atmosphere, and making smart decisions with materials (acrylics, oils, enamels and all the messy fun in between). We also talk discipline, feedback, mentors, and the long game of getting better without burning out.
