Assignment 1 Blog, portfolio and websites

Artstation Portfolio I have recently started using Artstation as my online Portfolio where I can post work produced within classes and my own personal works done outside of classes in my free time. I also use this to find other existing artists so I can follow their work. Using this site also allows me to draw inspiration from seeing so much artwork. https://www.artstation.com/artist/iqraau

Portfolio I also use Carbonmade as my primary portfolio where I post my own work and nothing from my university work unlike Artstation. I post both finished pieces as well as sketches and unfished works. https://iqraillustrates.carbonmade.com/

Blog and InstagramFor my blog I have been using Tumblras my chosen platform because I’mfairly familiar with using it and havequite a few followers that see what Ipost.I use my blog to show processes andtalk about the work a bit more. I alsouse it as a form of documentation ofwhat I have been doing in universityclasses.https://www.instagram.com/iqraillustrates/http://iqraillustrates.tumblr.com/

Pinterest I have been using Pinterest for quite a while so I have accumulated a lot of inspiration over the years. Having a site such as Pinterest is very useful because you gather a lot of research in folders and have everything in front of you while you work. It also works as a form of inspiration because you can search art and thousands of results come up. https://uk.pinterest.com/stateofgracce/

Online StoresI also have two online stores where Ipost my own work that can then beturned into merchandise and peoplecan purchase a number of items.I use these sites as a form ofpromotion for myself as an artistbecause when I am approached bysomeone who wants to buy my art Ican direct them to these sites.http://www.redbubble.com/people/iqraillustrateshttps://society6.com/iqraillustrates

My Webcomic Over the past year I have been working on a Webcomic that I am still continuing to work on in my own time and I have created a website for it and have been promoting it on my social media. I have gained a few readers despite having only a prologue currently on the website so I use this again to gain more people seeing my work and as a way to share something I have been working on that I am quite proud of. http://silentiumcomic.com/ http://silentiumcomic.tumblr.com/

Sketchbook I have been using my sketchbook as a place to keep all my ideas a initial ideas for my classes and also for my own personal use.
