Add Your Artist Profile

Edit Profile

To edit your profile, click or tap the My Account button in the main menu.

Or use the page-bottom button with your account name. The page-bottom button will give you a dropdown menu. From there, select ‘My Account’, then 'Manage Profile'.

Most of the items in your artist profile are auto-formatted. All you need to do is fill out the answers, and upload your images.

TIP!

You don't have to scroll to the bottom of the profile-editing page to the Submit button to save your changes.  Place the cursor is in an item's active editing box, and hit 'Enter' - same thing as clicking the button. 


Your Title

Your Title is how you wish to be identified.  It can be anything you want.  For example:  Artist, Instructor, Professor, Workshop Leader,.  You can also leave it blank.  You're giving your participants a clue about how to address you in a conversation, which can help set the tone for your workshop.

Social Media 

Add your social media links here, as many or as few as you wish.  

IMPORTANT!

Enter only the 'www.mymedia.com ' of your link.  Do not add 'https//:', as this will break the pre-formatted link.  Refer to the examples below.  Always check your profile on the front to make sure all your links work, and remove any extra characters. If a link doesn't work as you expect, check to make sure you've removed 'https//:'  from the URL field.

Contact Information

Your email address and contact phone are for internal use, and will not be displayed, for security purposes. We protect your personal data!

Artist Vitae

Upload a Word doc or a pdf for your Artist Vitae. 

IMPORTANT:  Be sure and tell us if you want to publish your vitae by selecting ‘Yes/No’ in the “Publish My Artist Vitae” drop-down. Answering 'Yes' will make your document visible and available as a .doc or .pdf download link.

References and Credentials

Most of the items in your artist profile are auto-formatted, meaning that all you need to do is fill out the answers, and upload your images.   The two exceptions of this are:

  1. Artist Bio and Statement
  2. Artist Professional Reference Contacts (Not for Publication)

Art Portfolio Images

In the Artwork Title field, enter the image title.  You can add additional information like the medium and dimensions in this field.  However, we suggest you keep this text line very short, so it's not too cluttered.  After all, you want visitors to focus on the work, right?

TIP!

IMAGE SIZE

For the best display of your art images, use high-quality .jpg or .png files with a minimum width of 800px at 72dpi for vertical images, and a minimum width of 1200px at 72dpi for horizontal images. 


All Done!

When you’re ready, click or tap 'Submit'.  Your changes are saved immediately, and you'll be redirected to your Dashboard.  Always check your profile on the front.
