ARTIST STATEMENT SHEET:

A good artist statement talks about who you are, what is unique about your work, and why you do what you do. Make it fun and creative. Your Artist Statement Sheet should be easy to read and understand. It should contain information about who you are, what you are photographing, and feature some important highlights of your photographic history.

Think of your Artist Statement Sheet as a sales aid. Someone may be thinking about purchasing one of your photographs, you must convince them that this is a good idea and that you are a serious artist worthy of being collected. Your Artist Statement Sheet will help someone to understand your work, and the information it provides will make potential buyers feel more comfortable talking about your work. The more someone knows about you and your photographs, the easier it is for that person to purchase your work. Educating your buying public will help to create new sales.

For some artists, especially those new to the field, the artist statement sheet may take the place of a full artist resume.

It is best to keep your artist information sheet to one page in length; if you need to elaborate, do so on your full artist resume.

Your artist support materials are handouts. Give them away whenever you are presenting your photographs. They are especially useful to first time viewer
