Artist Statements, Bios & Portfolio Texts

Writing about your own work is one of the hardest things an artist has to do. The result is usually either too vague ("I explore the relationship between...") or too academic. A good statement sounds like you talking about your work to someone who genuinely wants to understand it.

What You Get

I start every project with a conversation. Not a form. I ask about your work, your process, and what matters to you. Then I write something that sounds like you said it on your best day.

How It Works

  1. Tell me about your work. Email me with what you need. If you have images, a CV, or old drafts, send those too. If you have nothing, that is fine.
  2. We talk. I send you a short questionnaire, then we have a 30-minute call. This is where the real material comes from.
  3. You get your text. Within 1 to 2 weeks, you receive a polished text ready for submissions, your website, or print. One round of revisions included.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you write my statement if I don't know what to say?

Yes. That is the most common starting point. I send you a short questionnaire, then we have a conversation about your work. Most artists know more than they think. My job is to find the right words for what you already know.

How many revisions are included?

One round of revisions is included in every project. Most clients are happy after the first draft. If you need deeper changes, we can discuss additional rounds.

Do you write for emerging artists too?

Yes. I work with artists at every stage. The approach is the same: understand the work, find the story, write it clearly. An emerging artist needs a strong statement just as much as an established one.

How much does it cost?

Artist statements start from €300. Bios and portfolio texts are quoted per project. I send a clear proposal within 48 hours.
