If you are an Artist,
You are frequently asked for an Artist's Statement.
Not only can you be asked for a statement about your work in general, but for a statement about a group of work or an individual work. The other day I was asked to describe my work in one word. I chose BOLD. That seems to sum up my composition.
The Big Split
48x36
3500.
Currently Exhibited at Vista Gallery in Kings Beach, CA
I might have chosen DRAMATIC.
Golden Boulders
48x60
6000.
Currently Exhibited at Village Interiors, Incline Village, NV
I thought about STYLIZED. And CONTEMPORARY entered my mind.
Serenity
16x20
650.
Currently Exhibited at Vista Gallery, Kings Beach, CA
Or even COLORFUL.
Three Birds
36x36
3500.
But in the end I settled on BOLD, as a one word description. Taking it a little further my description becomes:
Bold, colorful, representational paintings presented with contemporary stylization.
The process of distilling a description of your work into one word helps with the process of creating a succinct, understandable description. Give it a try.
