How do I organize my artwork into categories on my online portfolio?

Categories can be defined however makes sense for your body of work. Common approaches include organizing by subject matter (landscapes, portraits, still life), by style (abstract, impressionism, realism), by medium (oil, watercolor, digital), by series or collection, or by theme. Choose the structure that best helps potential buyers navigate and understand your work. If you’re unsure how to technically create and assign these categories on your portfolio platform, consult the platform’s help resources or support chat—request a step-by-step guide for setting up categories and rearranging work into them.
