Artist questionnaire

We've introduced a new blog section on the website which will be used for promoting individual artists through feature articles with text and images in a Q+A style. If you're interested in taking part fill in the questions below and add some images and website links.

Answer the questions as fully as you can so that readers can learn about you as an artist. Write in the first person to make it more personal and engaging. Answer as many or as few questions as you want.

Articles will be added to the blog on a regular basis in the order received, and promoted via social media. We reserve the right to edit answers for brevity and clarity.

Images

Ensure that your images are well lit, correctly exposed and in focus so that your artwork can be seen at its best. Photograph 3D work against a plain background so that it can be seen clearly. It is recommended that you prepare your images on a desktop or laptop computer rather than a phone or a tablet so that all the image specifications can be met.

Portrait image – recommended size 620 pixels wide

This can be a headshot, a picture of you working or a picture of your studio.
