Writers and Artists Website Collaboration

I bet there are a lot of up-and-coming writers out there who might be willing to pair up with a fine artist whose writing skills aren't as developed as their drawing skills. Such a writer and artist could team up to add creative and complementary words to the artist's visual work. Both the artist and writer would benefit from the resulting traffic by simply placing a credit link to the writer's site on each page.

Advertising agencies and design firms probably have it a little easier than most fine artists. First, they probably have copywriters on staff. Second, they have plenty of information to draw from regarding each campaign. They can write about strategy and effectiveness. They can discuss branding and audience. They can interview art directors to reveal the creative process behind the work. For an agency, putting content into a portfolio is more a question of discipline than ability.   next >
