Hi Matthew
I've just taken a look at your website. I have a couple of suggestions for you. Navigation around the site needs improving. Your drawing, pen and ink, homemade pages are linked at the bottom of the home page, and I did not even know they were linked pages until I ran the mouse over them. These pages need to be up a top of the page, next to your other pages. Once on one of these pages, I can not find a way to get back to the home page. Every page on the site has to be linked back to the Home Page. Your About page, in the first paragraph, you talk about yourself in the first person, then start talking about yourself in the third person. When reaching out to your visitor, it is always best to talk to your visitors about yourself, not to your visitors as if somebody else is talking about you. Talk in the first person only. About page, does not say anything to me about you. People gain an interest from others they like, people buy from people they like. The about page is your chance to allow people into your personal world, to let them see who you are, share your visions and find a connection to you. I would recommend you upload a real picture of yourself. I would recommend you get rid of the advertising your society 6 and etsy and suggesting they buy from you on the About Page page. This page is not for sales pushes, it is for them to learn about you. And again, remove the links for more information about you on the About Page. Nobody is going to go hunting and link jumping just to find out more information about you. It needs to right there, on the About page. Hope this helps. Good luck.
