        @djlambson I wouldn't worry about having lots of images if you aren't happy with some of them! I was taught at uni that it's better to have 12 really solid good pieces, than to have 25 okay ones. For an idea, we were told that we should aim for 15-20 pieces of our best work in our portfolio, and 12 the minimum if we were struggling. This is as illustrators at the start of our careers, as you do more work you will naturally add to this number!

            One thing I would consider changing is using a cleaner, more legible version of your name at the top of the page. The sketchy-ness of it makes it hard to read.

                  If someone would please be so kind as to take another look at the name/title and tell me if that hand drawn font is hard to read..I have somehow turned this into an art project and now just want to go back to Time Roman.

                    @djlambson It is not an instant read for me...i think if the first letters of each name were capitalized and the "s" was tamed a tiny bit it would read faster for me - i really like your farm image with the chicken sweeping the porch!

                      @djlambson I would keep it simple and neat to be easily readable. In the case you revert to Times New Roman, maybe you want to add the little bird underneath your name? That would do the trick (= personal touch)
