Writing about myself for a gallery I hope will consider my work.
Brain blank and freeze...procrastination....I've got thus far....
"I am an artist,mainly in clay, and ink on paper. I have been doing this for over fifty years. At present I am concentrating on lino-printing, having not had a clay studio since 2012 when I moved to Scotland from Wales. I hope to return to clay again soon "
Its a beginning. Should I mention Art college?
The dreaded "artist's statement" will take a little longer, but must be faced!
I must try and list the exhibitions and galleries I've been in and the associations and cooperatives worked with.....
I've had a couple of useful suggestions, thanks Fresca..this is a really good link

You're getting there...throw in your value system and the biking maybe!
ReplyDeleteI am sure galleries will be very pleased to showcase your work and your art speaks for itself, a reference to your blog would be good as its such an honest progress report of your creative journey. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteOh, god, the artist statement. Throw out pieces of yourself; it's what they want.
