What makes for a visual artist’s brand? Is it:

+ An instantly recognizable style?

+ A consistency of style, a consistency of subject matter, or both?

+ Imagery that strikes a commercial chord?

+ Branding around the cult of personality, where you get known for your antics and your affairs rather than for your art?

+ Beating your chest and hawking your wares at the top of your voice?

+ Branding by putting in a lot of time and effort into standard marketing tools like social media platforms?

+ Branding by making videos?

+ Branding by making connections with movers and shakers?

+ Or??
