Trying To Describe What My Work Actually Is....

How would you describe yourself to others??

i don't. i let them decide.

as far as people are concerned i'm a painter. doesn't matter what i tell them.

I just call myself a wildlife artist. I suppose I should start being a little more descriptive. Something like painter of birds! :)

Multi-talented, lol.,emotive...........which doesn't guarantee 'highly successful'.
I am a Jacquie of All Trades, art forms, so, I don't generalize.
The works here are defined by Search terms really......
My descriptions define my intent,the 'style',the category.
To others?........Artist, Photographer.

"How would you describe yourself to others?"

See train, shoot train

isnt that mixed media then? two different types of art. I keep it simple for myself..I am an artist that does landscape photography. I Manipulate my images as I see fit. ts never straight out of the camera.

If it looks like a painting, than I refer to it as digital art.

Jon, actually digital art refers to art that is created on a computer, not coming from a camera.

As for me I refer to myself as a photographer. Then people assume I'm a wedding or people photographer. Then comes the long explanation! LOL!

Lol Jessica! Yeah it isn't so simple to describe like it used to be a long time ago.

it doesn't matter what its called its beautiful your work.

I borrowed a phrase from a personality test or two that said, "You are a true aesthetic. You love beautiful things." As a photographer, I am also an eagle-eyed perfectionist with a background in dental hygiene, graphic design, and professional writing. So I tied those in with photography to help set myself apart from others. I think our personality traits and backgrounds tend to show up in our work. Since rewriting my bio, I can't say that sales have skyrocketed, but I feel better about giving it more thought. I just took two checks to the bank and made two more sales today, and that's been a nice perk.
