Picture
 A portfolio is used to showcase your artwork for entry to further education courses, jobs and galleries.
One portfolio can differ from another depending on its purpose. 
 

Portfolio Advice

  • Research the course/ gallery/ job you are applying for and make sure you understand the emphasis of the course.
  • Demonstrate your capability in your chosen area.
  • Show visual evidence of a range of skills using a variety of tecchniques and materials, this could include finished projects, developmental work, digital work, photography, paintings, drawings, three dimensional work, storyboards, films or animations.
  • Show creative thinking, investigation and ability.
  • Include sketchbooks and notebooks as well as finished work.
  • Make sure your work is organised, with sketchbook work next to final pieces.
  • Any large or three dimensional work can be shown in photographs.
  • Know your work! You will need to be able to talk clearly about your ideas, and what you consider to be stronger or weaker pieces.
