Now I would consider myself to be a professional. Went to school and received a degree. Held solo and group shows. I've even been published. I run my own shop. Seems pretty professional to me. However for some there's even more.
As I've been entering more shows, contests and publications I have quickly realized that many do not want a CD, or attachments as they did in days of old. Instead they ask for your website and they specifically ask primarily for your website not your blog or your online shop. Even though I may feel a blog is a perfectly valid account and my shop displays my work just fine I don't want to be at a disadvantage. So I therefore created a verified, professional website. It includes everything my resume, exhibition record, artist statement, portfolio, contact, etc. This way all my bases are covered and I figure it can only be more professional on my part.
