Final Portfolio

Your final portfolio for this course will exist in two distinct formats:

1. The real thing. All works on paper should be kept in a portfolio case, protected from each other with sheets of glassine. Paintings should be kept in custom "envelopes" to protect their surfaces. Sculptures and ceramic objects should be handled as is necessary.

2. The blog/website. Create a blog that consist of a minimum of ten and maximum of twenty (ideal) GOOD QUALITY images of your work.  Use a white, grey, or black (neutral) background and the "basic" design template.  All images must have a caption that lists title, media, size, and date.  Also create a blog page to house your finished and polished artist statement, another for your perfectly formatted artist resume'.  These two pages need to be linked through the main page of your blog.  If you have experience and prefer to design a webpage, feel free to do so.  Links to a few good examples are to the right.

You will be provided with examples in class. See course syllabus for due dates.
