Voice & Tone

How we sound. Three principles, three examples.

01 · QUIET

Confident, never breathless.

We are a desk, not a megaphone. No exclamation marks. No hype words. No emoji.

"We curate, you write, you send."
02 · CONCRETE

Specific over abstract.

Name the place, the juror, the dollar amount. Replace "amazing opportunity" with "Ogden Museum, $5,000, July 10."

"Louisiana Contemporary. $5,000. Juror: Naima Keith."
03 · LITERATE

Like an arts journal.

Long-form when the moment earns it. Em-dashes welcome. Italics for emphasis, not for shouting.

"Stay in the studio — we'll watch the desk."

Warm, tactile, studio-true. Avoid stock. Always credit.

Studio interiors
Natural light. Real working clutter. Avoid staged "creative" shots.
Hands & materials
The artist at work. Paint, paper, dust, tools.
Place & landscape
Regional, specific. New Orleans light. Southern texture.
Typographic moments
Fraunces wordmark over color blocks. Editorial pull-quotes.
