6 Topics to Talk about Your Art

Six Topics to Talk About Your Artwork


Artist statements are not stupid; they're more like essential. And you don't have to be a writer to write one. And people already look at your art and take away whatever experiences they will. Your artist statement is about facts, a basic introduction to your art


 

Ideas-- Tell me (us) about your idea(s).

Process-- How did you make your artwork? (or, your painting, sculpture, collage)

Materials-- What materials (or tools) did you use?

Knowledge-- (concepts, vocabulary, artists studied). 

Reflection-- What do you like best in your artwork? Do you want to add anything to your artwork?

Future-- What will you make next? What would you like to learn more about (or, how to do)? While these topics work well with children who are beyond the young artists’ earliest art making, what if an adult is working with our youngest artists who are simply becoming acquainted with tools and materials: scribblers?
