Unit 2 Activity 3: THE PERSONAL STORY
Artists often have a thematic concern or focus that they explore over and over in a multitude of ways. Their work is almost an extension of themselves and will often reveal their inner world. They will often make strong stylistic choices that, in turn, characterise their body of work.
