A Message from our Editor-in-Chief

Dear Friends,

Can you feel it?

That quiet rhythm beneath your feet—the breath of a living planet calling us to listen, to slow down, to care.

Welcome to ArtTour International Magazine’s Spring 2025 “Earth Power” issue, a tribute to the beauty and resilience of Mother Earth through the universal language of art.

This season, we invited artists worldwide to share works inspired by our theme: “Our Power. Our Planet.”

The result? A breathtaking chorus of color, symbolism, and soul—art that doesn’t just speak, but sings.

I’m honored to reveal the cover artists whose works shape the heart of this issue:

Front Cover – “Harmonious” by Tracey Chaykin

A luminous celebration of pollinators and petals, captured in pencil with stunning grace.

Back Cover – “Mother Earth” by Monika Bendner

A digital portrait of Earth as a sovereign, sacred presence—bold, watchful, alive.

Interior Cover – “Still Standing” by Michael Surber

A vibrant fluid painting pulsing with energy, resilience, and raw natural force.

These three artists are part of a larger movement—what we call Artists for a Green Planet—creatives using their gifts to protect what matters most.

And there’s more.

To mark Earth Day, we hosted an inspiring global broadcast, created in collaboration with EarthDay.org and now available on our YouTube channel.

You’ll see moving tributes, artist showcases, and the unveiling of this issue’s winners—live and in color. Watch it at YouTube.com/ArtTourInternational.

And we’re just getting started…

This issue also launches our next journey: Artist On The Go—our new docuseries going behind the scenes into the studios and stories of artists worldwide. From New York to California, from Europe to Taiwan, we’re capturing the power of art in motion.

If you’re an artist ready to share your world—let’s connect. Apply at www.arttourinternational.com. We’d love to meet you, wherever you are.

Because this is our moment.

To rise.

To create.

To protect what we love.

Stay inspired,

Viviana Puello
