Your Artwork Archive Public Profile turns the artwork you already keep in your account into an online portfolio you can share with anyone. It stays in sync with your inventory, so when you update a Piece record, your profile updates too.
In this walkthrough, you'll see how to choose what to share, make your profile look like your own, and help collectors, curators, and galleries find and contact you.

How to Get the Most Out of Your Artwork Archive Public Profile
Choose your public artwork first. Go to My Profile, then the Public Pieces tab, and turn on the artwork you want visitors to see. Everything else stays private
Preview before you go live. Click Preview as a Visitor at the top right of the Manage Your Public Profile page to see exactly what visitors will see. Once your profile is public, that button reads View Public Profile
Make it public when you're ready. Use the status drop-down beside the Manage Your Public Profile title and choose Public. If you only want certain people to see it, add a password under Profile Settings > Privacy Settings
Share your link anywhere. Click the copy icon beside your Public Profile URL to copy your link. Click the pencil icon to personalize the URL
Get found on Discovery. Your profile appears on Discovery when it's public, isn't password protected, has at least four public Pieces, and your subscription is active
Let it update itself. Changes you make to your Piece records show up on your profile automatically, so there's nothing to update twice
Note:
The web embed is available on the Artist Professional and Master plans.
