Great news, you got into a show! The bad news, they want an artist’s statement by tomorrow. How does one start the process of putting thoughts into word? As an artist you probably have a broad visual vocabulary but putting it on paper can be a little trickier. The ability to speak intelligently about your art can’t be underestimated and an artist’s statement can help viewers understand and clarify what they’re seeing when viewing your art.

Just give them the basics and let their imaginations fill in the blanks. - See more at: http://www.createmixedmedia.com/blogs/7-strategies-to-writing-an-effective-artists-statement#sthash.Tgw9snX8.dpuf
