This is the most important page in your online portfolio. It needs to be completed as professionally as possible. On this page you show ALL of your projects from class and from Studio 1. When you take photos of your work make sure that the photos are in high resolution, cropped, and edited.
This page will include three parts:

3. 1 + QR Code or an Auto-commentary about one or more of your pieces: During the school art show you will have a QR code next to one of your artworks. Viewers can use their cell phones and activate the code to listen to your reflections and view your online portfolio.
