you planted the pottery in there to test if we’re thoroughly looking, right? if not, get rid of it
That said, solid work, solid website!

one little thing, I’d remove the quote, contact, 2012 from the bottom of the page, you already got your email up on the top and in that black bar... and maybe a little hint where you are based would be nice, without looking at the cv...
- you should always have a contact at the end of a pitch, this case your work.

Really nice. On smaller devices there's a big gap above the sticky footer.

Don't mix direct website links with in-site links. Make pages for those websites to show in the same way as the rest of it.
Boobs/Goat heads on the homepage might turn some people off. Maybe run with a different photo, or a crop of the type treatment.
Nice work.

I'm not really designer but recently had to hire one... so take it for what it's worth. Though you have a good collection of compelling images none of it comes as design related. It all looks like some website with links to awesome content not one designer's portfolio. Maybe because for the most part you take the images out of their content - i don't know. My 2 cents.

a lot of these say they work on mobile devices and that that was a big part of the project. why don't you show comps of these mobile devices?
as pr2 said, the thumbs throw me off. some are cropped, others aren't, you got some personal projects in there, identity work is not brand work, and i wish some were taken apart more and shown as a cohesive story instead of just showing one image. say if you did the logo, show me. if a project says art direction / branding / web, show me all those things cause i want to see them.

- be consistent with your thumbs as they're the first thing EVERYONE sees.doesnotexist
- your cv should have descriptions of the role you played at each place. wtf did you do at all these places? sit in silence?doesnotexist
- ... in a corner?doesnotexist
- if your interested enough - you'll have me in for an interview to explain.Claymantis
- or he'll have someone else in instead. It's good advice. don't make me guess how much of a project is 'you'monNom
- True. Respect.Claymantis

Well done sir.

Here's a pet peeve of mine...
Calling a logo... or a basic stationery... "branding".

not much criticism to give, actually. I could pick at yr actual work but no point. the black bar could be smaller

good stuff, man.
i understand you're recently "out of work"... hence the freelance.
(maybe i'm confusing you with someone else?)either way... best of luck.
oh, and bacon!

Good job. Lose the pottery and art, or just remove the personal work from the client design, please. I believe I have a few adpioneers business cards sitting around. Did we possibly meet?
- separate it, I mean, don't necessarily delete itmonospaced
- I dont think we've ever met. Thanks for the feedback mono.
