'Artists often wonder whether to title their art. The answer to that question
is absolutely positively YES. To begin with, a title always adds value to a
work of art. At the very least, it gives viewers more information than they
would have if the work was untitled. Think about it. If you had to choose
between two very similar works of art, you liked them equally well, they were
both priced the same, but one had a title and the other didn't, which would you
buy? If you're like most people, the one with the title of course. Because the
one with the title has "more" than the one without... and you're paying nothing
extra for it.
Titles are also important because that they serve as introductions to your art,
especially for people who know nothing about you, but who come across your work
by chance or accident for the first time, like what they see, and want to know
more. Good titles give them one more reason to initiate the want-to-know-more
process. They help engage and encourage viewers to keep looking and learning.
And then there's the Internet. A major plus point of art with titles is that
it's searchable on Google and other search engines. Untitled art is not. And
the more opportunities you give people to discover your art, the more people
will discover it. With these facts in mind, artists often wonder how to come up
with good titles. Well wonder no more because here are some basic tips and
guidelines for how to title your art'
