1
Gauge the appropriate length. Author bios often vary in length. A website bio can be significantly longer than the bio included on a gallery card for a painter, or on a press release. Keep your limitations in mind to help choose the right information to include in your bio.
2
Refer to examples. If you encounter a case of writer's block, consult other author bios. Visit artist websites or consult a stash of old gallery cards to get ideas for what to write. Galleries and promotional websites often feature artist bios that you can use for reference.
3
Write like a professional. A great author bio can make a positive first impression, whereas a poorly crafted bio full of grammatical errors can tarnish an artist's credibility. Proofread your work multiple times, have a friend or family member read it over, or consult a professional writer to ensure quality.
4
Remain professional. While it might be tempting to throw in fun details about your love of nude beaches or your dream to tap dance for a crowd, resist the urge. An artist bio should focus on pertinent professional and artistic information.
5
Display your expertise as an artist. You are an expert on your art, so write about yourself and your work in a way that will draw attention and support your position as the creator of spectacular art. A finely crafted, knowledgeable bio will compel people to buy.
