About this Webinar:
Your Artist Statement: What it is? Why do you need one? When do you use it? Artist Statements are a key piece of how you share your art with grantors, colleagues, audiences, and more. Whether you are describing your new project, or summing up your artistic drive, it is vital to be able to write about you and your art in a way that resonates with the reader.Join Colleen Snell as she shares her editing checklist and shares examples of working through the artist statement writing process.
