Issue No. 7 of Mascular Magazine was dedicated to Portraits. With all the events, changes, and challenges we have seen over the past decade, we wanted to take a moment and look at how we had changed. More specifically, we wanted to see if the way we see ourselves had evolved.It turns out that the Portraits theme resonated with artists from around the world. We had in excess of 100 excellent submissions. What we learned came as a bit of a surprise. Apparently, while we remain resilient and hopeful, we are a bit more humble and, perhaps accepting than before, though no less creative.
