You can get more images on a DVD and if most folks have DVD players in their PCs then you won't have a problem. If you send to a gallery that has only a CD player then they cannot see your work and that is that. CDs hold a lot of info... having said that I thik I woudl go with a CD in most cases.In my opinion, I would create something to cover all bases... that means a CD, 800x600 pixel resolution at 12 bits of color (sRGB color space).

I am beginning to produce motion pictures of my work that are 1080p 30fps movies with sound tracks, etc. I like that as a format because it is different and something that the viewer can relate to in an inate way (having been brought up in front of the TV set). I create movement in the images and show closeups, etc. Here is something CRITICAL... loads of fakir artists out there that create derivative works and copy the work of others in whole or part, or concept, and pawn it off as their own work. Plenty of galleries have been "bitten" by this problem and they are careful.

A video or even photos in a PowerPoint(tm) presentation are excellent but if you can show some provenance then you will draw some additional admiration. Provenance generally means that the lineage of ownership is know for a painting and so it can be considered to be an original. However, it is also known to gallery owners, agents, and curators as "asking the right questions to determine if the work is an original piece by a REAL artist or not."

That is why, often these folks will ask an artist showing their portfolio: "How did you come to paint that? " "Do you know the model? " "Did you paint from reference photos or a life sitting?" etc. All these questions designed to separate the chaf from the wheat.

2 depends on the size of the file. CDs hold 650-900 MB. DVDs can hold up to ~9 GB.

Also depends on what burner you have. Us? We're stuck with only a CD burner, while hubby keeps thinking he bought a DVD burner... what a bite.

3 I think turkermom summed it up (although a CD only holds up to 700 mb). But if you can hold down the amount of data, use a CD just because it's nearly universal and you don't have to worry about what turkermom talked about with people being confused about what kind of drive they have in their computers.

Internationally recognized painters who send their portfolios via the old slide sheets or the new DVD with resume method, find they don't even hear back from galleries that are virtually perfectly matched to their style and audience. Most times, you're either initially contacted by invitation or you don't get their attention. They discover you by seeing you in a magazine, a group exhibition, by word of mouth.

DVD, thumbnails, high res images and jpegs of each piece. And a link to a website is a must these days. But most galleries get so many portfolio submissions that they literally ignore them.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
