Without freedom, no art; art lives only on the restraints it imposes on itself, and dies of all others.

-- Albert Camus

professional artist portfolios

Our professional artist portfolio is designed to handle every aspect of an artist's business. Many artists use it for inventory purposes, to track the history of their works and to keep collectors informed and reminded of their name and art. We've designed our portfolio system from the ground up based on the effectiveness of our systems in the past, and conversations with our clients and other artists on what they need.

We've balanced the needs of most artists with the realities of budgets, and so we offer a very complete package of standard features on our professional level portfolio. For artists who want additional features or require specialized modules, we offer them at a very affordable price. Plus, our system is designed to be scalable, so that it can grow with your needs, and the new developments of technology and information management.

it's all about the visuals

Your art is what distinguishes your vision from other artists and the general population. We understand that, and so your portfolio web site is designed to your specifications and with your input. Each professional site comes with 15 hours of design time to ensure that your site presents you and your work exactly how you want. We balance that, of course, with ensuring consistent navigation, an intuitive design, and clean, fast presentation.

Your portfolio includes space for up to 100 artwork records and their images; for a small charge, you can increase the number of artwork pieces in your portfolio.

spend more time creating art

We know you don't want to waste studio or plein air time trying to learn programming or web site design. To this end, we've created a method for you to modify as much or as little of your site as you want. With no specialized knowledge, you can set up and make changes to your online portfolio such as adding artwork with no assistance, day or night, from anywhere in the world. You can spend a minimal amount of time and it will work fine, but you also have the power to tweak every almost every aspect of your site to increase your placement on search engines.
