• the four "P"s of marketing
    • Product
    • Price
    • Place
    • Promotion
  • why are you a strong artist? who or what influences you to create?
  • NEVER say "i can't"
  • let your hand draw what your eye sees
  • don't waste paint
  • don't be reluctant to say, "i'm an artist"
    • if you accept it and claim it as your own, others will follow
  • rights and responsibilities
    • to create freely (intellectual property)
    • interpretation/role
    • to not be ashamed
    • to promote, stimulate, and encourage others
    • to know your audience
    • art is what civilizes us
  • defining yourself: if you don't do it, others will!
  • when writing an artists' statement:
    • know about your context
    • write it authentically
    • enhance the value of what you do
    • "catch yourself thinking about work"
    • < 100 words
    • first or third person
    • clear, simple language
  • meeting new people is the beginning of a dialogue
  • for me:
    • collage is about context, or lack of
    • one of the (highest) forms of design
    • let the paper move for me
    • not always successful, though
