Portfolio Site Worksheet

Step 1: Develop Your Idea

I am aiming to build a website that showcases my artist style and works I have as an illustrator, featuring both digital and fashion illustrations.

Step 2: Discovery and Research

The final outcome of my portfolio website will be minimal verbal language, focusing on visual storytelling.

Aleksandra Bokova
I love her style in both modeling and illustration on her website. It's super inspiring how she showcases her modeling projects and personal style in such an interactive and engaging way. The design is sleek and minimal while maintaining a strong artistic presence. Visit Aleksandra Bokova's Website

CHAINZOKU
This website stands out by combining 2D animation with 3D modeling, offering a playful experience to the audience. The integration of 3D models into a 2D space is clever, and the way the site turns black-and-white comics into color when tracking the mouse cursor is captivating. It keeps the audience engaged while showcasing their work and design. Visit CHAINZOKU's Website

SunFlower Orange
This is the personal website of a Korean illustrator. I love the overall style of her site and how she presents her work. Additionally, I’m fond of the interaction in the "Store" section, which makes the whole page feel much more “de-commercialized,” maintaining the overall aesthetic of her artistic style.

Their playful and imaginative digital experiments make the site not only visually appealing but also highly engaging. Visit Twomuch's Website
