If you are involved in art, you will need a really good portfolio. The portfolio is one of the best on the market. Very simply put, a portfolio is like a briefcase that allows you to store your art in a way that makes it presentable as well as allowing you to keep it safe. A portfolio is an essential item for anybody that works with art, whether it is professionally or in school. If you are trying to find a good portfolio, there are many options available to you. If you are looking for a store from which to buy a portfolio, an arts supply store should be your first option and these can be found in most major cities across the country. However, you should only use the art supply stores to look at the portfolios that are available, as you are likely to be able to purchase them online at a greatly reduced price.
There are many online stores that specialize in providing a full range of art supplies. This means that you should not have any difficulties finding portfolios at very affordable prices. Do make sure that the store you purchase from is a legitimate store and does not deal in counterfeit goods. It is quite easy to recognize a good online retailer, as these will have excellent customer services and will be very open and transparent in their policies and procedures. Of course, they should also have customer reviews on all their products that allow you to ascertain the products are actually value for money and of high quality.
So what do you actually do with portfolio cases? It seems obvious that they are use to store art, but how exactly should you present it? There are a number of unwritten rules about how to present art within a portfolio. Many feel that placing their art in date order will demonstrate how they have improved over time. If you are in school, presenting your art in this way is absolutely fine, but if you are trying to present art to a gallery, it isn't the way to go about it. As a rule of thumb, you should make sure that the artwork points to the fold in the middle of two pages of your portfolio. This is best explained by using a profile picture, whereby the face should point to the inside of the portfolio. With a drawing that is made in landscape format, the bottom of the picture should be on the inside of the portfolio. This way, you will have a fully presentable portfolio.
