Getting more from these captions

  • Pick the handle a buyer would type

    People who see your work in a shop or on a flyer will try to type your handle. Keep it short and avoid lookalike letters.

  • Stay medium-neutral

    If you may move from ink to textiles, pick a handle about your vision, not your tools.

  • See if it is free

    Search the handle in the app and on the web. Two artists sharing close names causes confusion that costs commissions.

Questions

Should an artist use their own name or a studio name?

Your own name builds a personal brand; a studio name is easier to grow into a team. Many artists use a studio handle with their name in the bio.

Do I need the same handle on every app?

Not required, but it makes you easier to find. Check each app for the same spelling.

Can I add a word later?

Yes, you can rename, but old links will break. Choose a handle you can keep.
