Nice looking work in there, I must say. Loaded fine on my broadband. I
do question your need for a opening page. Get right to the good stuff.
Remember the work is the hero. I appreciate what Carrie notes and that
the navigation through your portfolio could be vastly improved.

Despite any technical shortcomings, stellar work.

Your illustrative strengths are evident in your work even the design
samples are very illustrative and flourishy. Collage is a nice
approach to page design depending on the content and the audience. I
think on a few samples it might have been taken too far but for the
majority of the design samples it fits nicely. Some nice calligraphy,
too. I also like how you push the colors a bit and make your
illustrations vibrant. I especially like your illustrations that are a
little looser technique - The Orchard. Your illustration seems
especially suited to book illustration and also advertising.

I was able to navigate fine through your web site to view your
portfolio however you might think about adding a "Contact" link.
