If you resist writing your artist's statement, talking about your work with your audience or even just putting words to what you make for your own understanding A. you're not alone and B. I pretty much give you everything I have on the subject in today's episode.
I cover...
-- the different kinds of art writing
-- the areas you may need to develop more in your practice in order to help your writing
-- specific aspects of your work to consider writing about, or at the very least, understand for yourself
-- general tips about language, truth telling and structure
-- prompts to get you going
This episode is basically a mini workshop with a lot of info, and for that reason, I created a free guide to go along with it that includes all the tips and writing prompts I mention.
