Is It Really Necessary To Add Videos to Your Art Portfolio?

Think about the last time you flipped through someone’s art portfolio online. Did you quickly scroll through the images and then move on? That’s exactly what happens to most portfolios today.

Less Can Be So Much More If you’ve ever stared at your portfolio and felt the urge to add just one more project, or maybe five, you’re not alone. There’s something strangely comforting about packing it full, like you’re proving just how much you’ve done. But here’s the truth: when it comes to showcasing your work, more isn’t always better.
