Well, I haven’t titled very many things, but once when I was inspired by the sky for a color combination for a bead bracelet, I entitled the bracelet, “Cloudy, with a Chance of Rain.” The beads were light blue, white and gray. So I guess that’s using the inspiration for the piece for a title.

One more reason to title your work: it makes you take a good close look at it as if you were a stranger to it, and to see perhaps more than you thought when you first painted the piece.

Great advice, Alyson! I have gotten in the habit of titling nearly all of my work, and while it can still be annoying sometimes, I’ve found it to be helpful (even if only for myself, so that I know what piece of work I am talking about.) I’ve gotten to the point where I can’t really stand it when someone titles their piece ‘Untitled’–just seems kind of lazy to me! 🙂 It takes the fun out of being creative with it. I’ve started to enjoy the process, thanks for the reminder!–Allison Bratt (@AllisonBrattArt)

Thank you for this advice. I’ve just googled a couple of my titles and found images of some and not of others. This is because my blog-post has the title but not the image. This year, 2011, I aim to get my art out there, so this titling is fab starting point. Next step a facebook fan page.
Thank you!
