research


i had started to look at online portfolios and had found some good examples and some bad examples in my opinion of portfolios.

one of my favorite portfolio sites is carbon made   it is clear and well organised. and easy to direct your self around. also having banners for someone's portfolio in staid of just a name, is a good idea as they can show of their work before even entering it. when you go into someone's portfolio its also well organised there. the only way it can be tricky or confusing is if the owner of the portfolio put unrelated titles in for each section. but the majority of them didn't.  for example http://rahll.carbonmade.com/ this portfolio was well labelled and split into categorises. the artwork that was put on were all tidy and clean and at a professional level. another good part of this website is that it had another section to the portfolio that showed their information http://rahll.carbonmade.com/about some of them like this one had allot of information that was helpfull but there was some that had no information accept their name.


i had found a portfolio site that is not as good as the other site http://www.artistportfolio.net/
this site is hard to navigate around and is confusing. once you find were the artists portfolios are they aren't represented very well as all there is only a link of the persons name. so does not really advertise the persons art. http://www.artistportfolio.net/index.php?secret=141&artist_id=4441 once you go onto someone's gallery it isn't well organised. there are no categories to show off all the styles of the artist and is messy

overall i think that if i were to create a digital portfolio then i would make one with carbon made, as it can show my art of to the best of its ability.
though i would prefer to create a printed portfolio
