A commonly asked question from artists who create a lot of different work is whether it’s appropriate to include multiple items in a single jury image. I’ve even had artists who don’t create similar items want to put a few pieces in each image as a way of showing the jurors that they make a lot of different things.

So when is it appropriate, and this is my own opinion? An example might be a single image that contains multiple items that are the same but in different colors, like multiple mugs for a potter. Or different items that sell together like a tea pot and matching cups or a necklace with matching earrings and a matching bracelet. In any medium, more sophisticated pieces created in the same style that would complement each other could work together in the same image.

There's more information and more example pictures in the article on my web site:
