Start by getting to know more about Pencil and the origins of Spain's first illustration agency. Then, Sandra and Ángel explain the dos and don’ts of preparing a memorable portfolio.
Next, it's time to do some research and explore the sectors where illustrators work before discovering how to specialize your portfolio according to your style and skills.
After that, examine your own work and select the projects you want to include in your portfolio. Ángel and Sandra then offer some tips on avoiding common mistakes and discuss different formats for presenting it.
To wrap up the course, hear from several illustrators and art directors about the importance of a good portfolio.

Design a professional portfolio to highlight your illustrations.
Illustrators who are just getting started and professionals who want to update their portfolios and explore new professional sectors.
Basic knowledge of image processing and design programs is required. In terms of materials, you need a pencil and paper for sketching, a computer, and, of course, a selection of your work. If you don't have many projects, don't worry. Sandra and Ángel can also offer guidance on discovering what your portfolio lacks and how to complete it.

To create a professional illustration portfolio, choose your strongest pieces, organize them into relevant categories, maintain visual consistency, and include both finished works and creative processes. Tailor your content to your target industry and use digital platforms to make viewing easy.
An illustrator’s portfolio for publishers or agencies should feature carefully selected illustrations aimed at the target audience, examples of real projects, creative process insights, a variety of styles, and a clear presentation including professional contact details.
You’ll need high-resolution images, a digital platform (like a website, Behance, or PDF), a well-structured layout by project or category, and brief texts that provide context for each piece. Basic skills in design tools and file management are also helpful.
This is an intermediate-level course aimed at illustrators who already have some experience and want to professionalize, update, or optimize their portfolio for different market sectors.
You’ll learn how to structure a professional portfolio, select and organize your work, adapt your portfolio to different clients, boost your digital promotion, and apply self-assessment and SWOT strategies to advance your creative career.
Choose illustrations that showcase your current style, technical skill, and versatility. Focus on pieces most relevant to your target sector and ensure visual harmony. Include both finished works and sketches or processes if they add value.
Recommended platforms include Behance, Pinterest, and personal websites with your own domain. For organization, tools like Evernote, Pocket, and project-based folders work well. Exporting PDF versions also helps with professional sharing.
