Principles for my Personal Art

Principles for My Personal Art
Must have a message, idea, or feeling
Must be a new way of “seeing” taken from my life’s experiences
Should have some degree of mystery or discovery that needs to be made by the viewer.
Should show a degree of creativity
No cliché’s
Should be of high technical quality
Composition and elements within the frame are only tools to help deliver my message.
Should have beauty
Should be printed
