Artist Portfolio Guidelines

Artist Portfolio Guidelines

Posted on: June 2, 2008

Through a random internet search, a website called Art-Support surfaced. The website has a small section on articles about the business of art and photography, tips on selling art, pointers on how to exhibit art, and ideas on how to promote and market artworks. A lot of their resources are for sale; however, one stand out article listing artist portfolio guidelines provides a good overview of the following issues:

  • Perspective
  • Portfolio design
  • Editing your artwork
  • Introduction and presentation
  • Preparation
  • Timing your portfolio review
  • Common sense
  • Follow-up
  • Have patience
  • Much of this information is the same advice we hear constantly from gallery directors that visit the Portfolio Center. Check it out!
