3. Collect images.

Collecting images might take some time.

Take new photos of your artwork using good lighting and camera. You might need a tripod for better quality.

Make sure pictures are in focus.

Pay attention to the edges - keep them straight.

If you do not have a physical artwork - go through the old photos and try finding it. That is if it is worth adding it to your portfolio.

5. Upload the photos to crevado.

6. Label each image:

• title
• dimensions (note the units!!)
• year!!!
• comments/description - write down the medium and the process and what inspired you. (example: mixed media: oil pastels, colored pencils on black illustration board)
