I was amazed at how easily and beautifully my portfolio site came together with Illustfolio Lumina, especially after struggling with similar projects in the past. It was so much more enjoyable than I expected, and I completed it in almost a day. The basic structure was exactly what I wanted, so all I had to do was upload my work to create the perfect page.

Showcase your illustrations beautifully

You can display your illustrations in a grid, or you can switch to display the entire image without cropping. In addition, infinite scrolling and category navigation are also available, so you can organize your work neatly.

Job Information Clearly Organized

When you want to accept work, you can create a unified design for your portfolio and contact pages. This makes it easy not only for yourself but also for your clients to understand your site.

Many other new features added

Slider

Display up to 3 images in a slider on the homepage.

Quick Preview

Quickly view posts in place without having to navigate back and forth between pages.

Sticky Navigation

Easily access other pages even while scrolling, without needing to return to the top of the page.

Layout Options

You can choose from a total of four layout options for the top page image.

Customizable header background and text color

Tag-filterable navigation

Display thumbnails without cropping

Optimized for Tumblr's new post format (NPF)

I create both fan art and original art, so I like that I can categorize them by genre. This also makes it easier for clients to browse the site.

It doesn’t look like a typical template; it looks like a site you created yourself.

The layout is very appealing, with all the necessary information easily accessible at the top. The font size and design elements are well thought out and easy to read and navigate. I also appreciate how the large illustration at the top of the site helps convey a personal and unique style.

I’ve long wondered if it would be possible to have both a good-looking portfolio and a platform where everyone can see it, and this seems to solve the problem!

Trusted by creators

Since its debut in 2012, the Illustfolio series has been adopted by over 35,000 sites, becoming the go-to template for illustrators, both professionals and amateurs alike.

Why did you create this template?

I have been developing a Tumblr theme called Illustfolio for many years to make it super easy for illustrators to create portfolio websites.
