I applied to Concordia University and this was my portfolio.

There's still a few things on the site I want to fix but what do you guys think?

Also, here's the cover of the actual book I handed in to the school. It was a gray photo album that I covered with yellow vinyl.

I was gonna say, it looked like you had gone through college level courses haha.

You have a super well-balanced portfolio. You have an awesome sense of color in your paint work.

If you have another 3D piece or two I'd throw it in there if I were you.

Thanks! I had another 3D model of an ant that I wanted to include but the program I applied to only let me put a total of 15 pieces in my portfolio.

thanks for all the feedback so far everyone. and id agree with you that the goat painting isnt the best work to put in a portfolio but my teacher said i should put it in to show them that i have a sense of humour
