Client brief
Recently I've been considering making a Facebook page, and several "shops" on different sites (eventually maybe my own webpage) in order to sell Original paintings I've completed, as well as for offering commissions. Eventually I can see myself extending beyond the painting into photography as well - though nothing is for sure as of now.
I do not want to have my name incorporated, and I'm hoping maybe to be able to find something that jumps out at me as a good choice, or something to at least inspire one I like. I'd like to stay away from most art terms - unless it's a name suggestion that absolutely NEEDS one, and that still stands out - as I'd like to avoid falling into a generic name choice. I'd prefer something that's memorable, but not completely out there in sense of spelling and pronunciation. Keywords listed aren't mandatory for use at all, just a few things I've been playing with myself. Suggestions not including them are encouraged.
Various domain names (besides .com) are welcome and encouraged.

Naming tips for Art Based Business Name
Keep it pronounceable
A good business name should be easy to say out loud and spell from memory. If you have to spell it out every time you say it, it will slow down word-of-mouth growth.
.com still beats clever TLDs
Despite hundreds of new extensions, .com remains the most trusted TLD for professional brands. Customers default to typing .com - pick a .com name whenever possible.
Avoid trademark traps
Before you register, run a quick trademark search to make sure the name is clear in your industry. Similar names in the same category can lead to costly disputes later.
Test it in a sentence
Say "I work at [name]" or "Check us out at [name].com" out loud. The name should sound natural, confident, and memorable in everyday conversation.
