New artwork by Prince George has been featured in a magazine that his father was guest-editing.

The 13-year-old's creative skills were shown off with a colourful drawing of a kingfisher.

The picture was drawn by the Prince earlier this year, at home in the spring.

He's not the only artist in the family as his grandfather King Charles III is also known to love painting.

George's drawing features a bright blue and orange kingfisher perched on a branch.

It appears in a special 300-page edition of Country Life magazine, which has been guest-edited by his father, Prince William, meaning he picked the content and the focus.

As well as the King's interest in art, both his mother - Catherine - and uncle - Prince Harry - studied art at A-level.

Catherine also studied history of art at university and is a keen photographer.

The four pictures were issued without revealing the artist and subject

Last year, Catherine, Prince George and his siblings - Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis - drew each other in four portraits posted on social media by Kensington Palace.

The palace said the royals made the sketches as "a moment of connection" to "spend time looking at and focusing on one another" while being creative.
