Explaining your thoughts.
Artists draw and paint and perform and compose and write
trying to express their personal feelings and thoughts. The books are published
and the painting hung and the music played or the dance performed.
Are you ready to explain to someone else why you did that?
Reviews and critical analysis and opinions and critiques
are made of art everyday. There are columns and publications and blogs giving
someone else’s thoughts of the art.
So if someone asked you, “Why did you do that?” could you
explain your art?
First you don’t know anything about the person asking the
question. Each person has a different background and experiences. Each person
can
Second the art itself in it’s own presentation should relay
your ideas. Why does it need further explanation?
Third do you remember the feelings or ideas? Have new
experiences changed your interpretation of an earlier work?
Forth is the promotion. Every type of art, if it leaves
your house to be viewed by others must be marketed. And descriptions of the
memories and feelings that created the ideas or the presentation should be
defined to relate to the unenlightened critics and reviewers.
