Researching other platforms and blogs, I started by looking at East Street Arts members platform. East Street Arts is a Leeds based organisation supporting local artists in a variety of ways from studio spaces to events. I looked at East Street Arts member Rufus Newell's profile, a graduate of Leeds College of Art. His profile is professional and clear, photographs of his work are the first thing that catch your eye because they are bold and set to the top center of the page. The photographs are clear and professional. They are in a slide show so they are easy to view and inform you visually about his work.
Newell gives a clear and concise overview of his work and his background in Leeds which is direct and informative, giving the reader a good sense of what his work is about and how he is a member of 'Precious' art collective in Leeds. He provides links to his website and the 'Precious' collectives Facebook page. Providing good links for the viewer and promotion of his professional work.
The East Streets Art members profiles is a great support and online networking tool, they are a well known organisation with great links with other professional art organisations, giving their members a great step forward in show casing their work on a professional level in the online art world.
