Looking back, I do see may benefits blogging could have had for me during my years as an <a title="art student" href="http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/08/drawpj-learn-to-draw-and-paint.html" target="_blank">art student</a>. I hope art students realize the amazing potential blogging can have in their early development as an artist. It will help in your art studies, articulate in words what your art is about, and gather important contacts in the art world.     Through blogging, all of this can be done before you even graduate. Whether you attend an art school, or enrol in an <a title="online art course" href="http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/08/drawpj-cindy-wider-interview.html" target="_blank">online art course</a> such as <a title="DrawPJ" href="http://bit.ly/PalCFg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">DrawPJ</a>, this post should be for you.

With the Wix website builder, any template can be loaded and personalized to your liking. Easily add your own text, navigation, background, fonts, images, and more to make it unique.   Each of these templates were created by professional web designers and specifically designed with artists, photographers, and other creative people in mind. It is very easy to select any website template and begin <a title="building a website" href="http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/04/learning-artist-portfolio-design-by.html" target="_blank">building a website</a> right away. Please review our previous articles on the Wix HTML5 site bulder before moving on: <a title="How to Create a HTML5 Website With Wix" href="http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/09/how-to-create-html5-website-with-wix.html" target="_blank">How to Create a HTML5 Website With Wix</a> <a title="Walkthrough of the Wix HTML5 Website Builder" href="http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/09/walkthrough-of-wix-html5-website-builder.html" target="_blank">Walkthrough of the Wix HTML5 Website Builder</a>  <a name="more"></a> <h3 align="center">10 Portfolio Gallery Templates to Showcase Art and Photography</h3>   <ol> <li><a title="The Artist" href="http://wixstats.com/?a=1401&c=124&s1=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img title="The Artist" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 0px 10px; display: inline" alt="The Artist" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9vc12tM4CWY/UGH5ZU-83WI/AAAAAAAAItE/hftLgTA1Hnk/s250/1-the-artist.jpg" align="right"></a>The Artist This is a great <a title="portfolio gallery" href="http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/09/online-art-portfolio-websites-list.html" target="_blank">portfolio gallery</a> template displaying a fictional art show titled Chase Happiness, a solo show at the Tate Gallery in London, England – Feb. 18th, 2014 I like the layout of this one, and especially how new pages open up through transitions. This looks like flash, but it’s not. Transitions are actually made possible by HTML5  <li><a title="Jewelry Website" href="http://wixstats.com/?a=1401&c=124&s1=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img title="Jewelry Website" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 0px 10px; display: inline" alt="Jewelry Website" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-eJGKRJ0VK9U/UGH5Zcy-8cI/AAAAAAAAItA/hltIZ91gCYk/s250/10-jewelry-website.jpg" align="right"></a>Jewelry Website This is an amazing design for a website! Click on the top navigation to see how cool the page transitions are. The Collections page displays a series of thumbnail images, perfect for a portfolio website. Clicking on any image reveals a full screen <a title="slideshow" href="http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/08/powerpoint-tutorial-for-art-slideshow.html" target="_blank">slideshow</a>.  Jewelry Website is recommended for jewel artists, but can be used by any artist, photographer, or designer.  <li><a title="Interior Decorating" href="http://wixstats.com/?a=1401&c=124&s1=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img title="Interior Decorating Template" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 0px 10px; display: inline" alt="Interior Decorating Template" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-lD0_I2J4l_k/UGH5ZYF8U9I/AAAAAAAAIs8/bIPujx3Djds/s250/2-interior-decorating.jpg" align="right"></a>Interior Decorating Bunny Matthews? No one related to me. :) This is a website template for interior decorators, but would suit artists just fine. I love templates such as this one that are very visual. A large auto-slideshow captures the attention of visitors, with space for smaller images below. The rest of the site is very straight forward, leaving plenty of room to showcase lots of art.  <li><a title="The Painter Template" href="http://wixstats.com/?a=1401&c=124&s1=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img title="The Painter Template" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 0px 10px; display: inline" alt="The Pinter Template" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-VpQYddlPs3Y/UGH5ZlCuafI/AAAAAAAAItM/T3ISCzQ8mtI/s250/3-the-painter.jpg" align="right"></a>The Painter The Painter template displays a series of small images on the home page. This setup maybe useful for showcasing a series of similar images, such as portraits. The Gallery page has a similar layout. Take a look at the Resume page. It includes headings for Professional Info., Work Experience, Education, Languages, and Skills.   <li><a title="Creative Portfolio Template" href="http://wixstats.com/?a=1401&c=124&s1=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img title="Creative Portfolio Template" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 0px 10px; display: inline" alt="Creative Portfolio Template" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-iKqLnVDNoH4/UGH5aO7RQVI/AAAAAAAAItY/MtFw38NtlVI/s250/4-creative-portfolio.jpg" align="right"></a>Creative Portfolio Creative Portfolio is the perfect promotional page. At the top, a slideshow automatically scrolls through multiple images. Below this is space for displaying your best artwork. Clicking on each image reveals a larger image. Right at the bottom, there is a place for a picture of yourself, <a title="social networking" href="http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/03/10-social-networks-for-artists-2012.html" target="_blank">social networking</a> buttons, and a contact form.  <li><a title="Artist Painter Template" href="http://wixstats.com/?a=1401&c=124&s1=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img title="Artist Painter Template" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 0px 10px; display: inline" alt="Artist Painter Template" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-CdEXD8Z1MkA/UGH5aAzuh6I/AAAAAAAAItU/WKbkmTC_sos/s250/5-artist-painter.jpg" align="right"></a>Artist Painter Artist Painter is a traditional portfolio site template, with a full page slideshow right on the home page. I like the layout of the portfolio pages – Recent Works, Past Works, and the Early Years. The first two pages show a grid patterned portfolio, while the Early Years has 3 sliding slideshows – creating variety in the site. <li><a title="Product Design Template" href="http://wixstats.com/?a=1401&c=124&s1=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img title="Product Design Template" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 0px 10px; display: inline" alt="Product Design Template" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-VjQpmngsRHY/UGH5aX47UgI/AAAAAAAAItg/iZjrm2ZAexM/s250/6-product-design.jpg" align="right"></a>Product Design This is a designers portfolio website, including a bio, work, and contact page.  <li><a title="White Photographer Template" href="http://wixstats.com/?a=1401&c=124&s1=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img title="White Photographer Template" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 0px 10px; display: inline" alt="White Photographer Template" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-lrV4KuYzLfs/UGH5am4bUjI/AAAAAAAAIts/ZZCeUUPgAI0/s250/7-white-photographer.jpg" align="right"></a>White Photographer White photographer (there is a similar black photography template) is a simple but effective <a title="photographers" href="http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/09/digital-slr-cameras-photograph-art.html" target="_blank">photographers</a> template, having separate pages for themes, bio, and contact – and lots of space to showcase photos.  <li><a title="Carton Crafts Template" href="http://wixstats.com/?a=1401&c=124&s1=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img title="Carton Crafts Template" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 0px 10px; display: inline" alt="Carton Crafts Template" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/--knQH3IYGE8/UGH5akBlWPI/AAAAAAAAIto/YZ2oiVZjIJk/s250/8-carton-crafts.jpg" align="right"></a>Carton Crafts Carton Crafts is an eCommerce web store template, and would be great for <a title="selling artwork" href="http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/07/artists-need-for-selling-art-online.html" target="_blank">selling artwork</a>, prints and crafts. ECommerce templates are not free. You will have to upgrade to a website package to use this template. With listed prices below each item, a shopping cart, and checkout, this would be the ideal choice for those looking to sell art directly from their Wix site. <li><a title="Photographers Dream Template" href="http://wixstats.com/?a=1401&c=124&s1=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img title="Photographers Dream Template" style="float: right; display: inline" alt="Photographers Dream Template" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-bOAONcT7n78/UGH5a5YtAwI/AAAAAAAAItw/tAmXrnK4sCI/s250/9-photographers-dream.jpg" align="right"></a>Photographers Dream This is a very professional looking website template for photographers. Images are very large, and included pages are About, Portrait, Documentary and Contact. </li></ol> Are any of these website gallery templates suitable for your purposes? Wix has 100’s more. If anyone would like me to post more here, just let me know. And, if you need any help setting up your site, I will be glad to help.

I often ask this question for the artist spotlight feature: “Where do you see yourself as an artist 10 years from now?” Most artists have very lofty goals – I do as well. But, I ask you this - have you actually spent time in planning goals for your art career and working out how to achieve them? This is a very important first step to success in any art business, whether on the internet or in an art gallery.     Think of it like this. To begin any business, you first need a business plan. If you planned on opening a new restaurant, you would need to work out goals, start-up costs, everything needed to get setup, and what group of people the business caters to. Don’t worry – I’m not going to tell you need a business plan. I know most artists are not business oriented people and would rather create than deal with all that business stuff. But, marketing art is different than any regular business. The artist is the CEO and the only employee. Unless you have help, you have to deal all the parts of the business - production, marketing and selling. This is a huge undertaking, and it certainly is necessary to set goals, have a plan, and take the necessary steps to propel your art career to new levels. There is a book that can help with that - <a title="The Goal Wheel for Artists" href="http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/?Clk=4678700" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Goal Wheel for Artists</a>. I will tell you more about this goal book below.

For those who are virtually unknown, the initial growth of a fan page can be a slow, pain staking process. It is easy to become disillusioned when you see artists with thousands of followers and yours sits there in the hundreds. But, there is hope for your fan page. From looking at many successful artists on Facebook, I have learned something very interesting. It seems that growth of a consistently updated fan page is exponential.   That is, if you take 6 months to reach 1000 fans, it may take about 3 months to reach 2000. This is because with an increasing fan-base comes more interaction, and therefore more people seeing your posts. Of course, there are several other factors involved – the main being the quality of the artwork and the personality of the artist.

What I find very interesting and original here is the Honor System, whereby artists are rated according to being active on Found Myself and giving donations.     Artists aren’t obligated to pay a commission on sold art, but are asked to give a voluntary donation whenever they want. Donators are given various perks throughout the site. Below I list some of the more useful features of Found Myself, and give a brief tutorial for setting up a portfolio of your own.

Basic HTML Coding - Crash Course for Artists

Some have been asking me to help them with the HTML coding for their websites. While I enjoy helping artists, I often do not have the time to go into detailed tutorials with everyone who asks. <img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 14px 0px 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: left; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="html crash course" border="0" alt="html crash course" align="left" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-MIFLCorUNsM/UFkjZKAffrI/AAAAAAAAIco/HltuXnp4z6c/html-crash-course5.jpg?imgmax=800" width="300" height="225">Therefore, I have decided to write this crash course dedicated to some very basic HTML, which may help artists in optimizing images and links for SEO (<a title="Search Engine Optimization" href="http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/08/how-to-get-your-website-seen-on-google.html" target="_blank">Search Engine Optimization</a>) and in formatting their websites. With WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) editors, artists do not often need to understand advanced coding. As for myself, I have had to work with the html, especially for including widgets and adding alt and title tags to images (some editors do not have this option). Even if you use a WYSIWYG editor your whole life, it does benefit knowing some basic things of how websites work underneath.
