Minor Problem on Portfolio-Home7.png 1 increase logo size 2 make this a stronger CTA and place on the page rather than up in the corner of the header. 3 alignment issues 4 the use of caps after each comma is inconsistant -
Aaran Casey commented:Spell check "what's Aso?"
5 use a stronger color for the links, it's blending too much 6 too many colors on the emphasized text. Also, the color being used for your name is the same color as your links making them hard to differentiate. 7 make this a stronger CTA button 8 make this a fat footer , add social media icons -

agreed
9 your resume and contact info is your main focus to drive business, so these really need to be made into CTA's that really stand out on the page. Positive Feature on Portfolio-Home7.png 1 I like this image and how it ties in the colors for the text on the gallery thumbnails text New Idea on Portfolio-Home7.png 1 possible add a shadow or border to pop your picture out some Summary:
Hi Jamie - so far this concept looks pretty clean, nice layout & the colors work well. It seems a little too 'boxy' for me though. It needs something to make it pop but I'm not sure what exactly. please see my notes...
Have fun & happy coding!

Summary:
Like the colours used here. Logo is very well designed but needs to stand out more maybe bigger and overlapping the black header, push My name is Jamie, ... down a bit to make this happen. Just an idea. Portfolio is a nice touch. Good Job!

Thanks Peter
Minor Problem on Portfolio-Home7.png 1 'some of my ... will be' - whoops! Positive Feature Good initial first impression
Page has a pleasing balance, an openness and an easy flow. It's purpose is obvious and apart from unusual use of colour in one or two key areas (already mentioned - e.g. in emphasised text and link colour being lost) it has a nice palletteOther Calls to action
In general the CTAs are a mixed bag and lack a consistent approach: CTA button in header, large FREE QUOTE in mid-section and links inline with copy.Other on Portfolio-Home7.png 1 Position of CTA at right seems to go beyond the natural right hand margin of the body content below - seems unnaturally rightbound - if you know what I mean 2 Apart from the mixed colours - try to avoid splitting the phrase Web Artist over 2 lines if possible, and is the location necessary when you have it lower down in your bio. Unless location is important for your work. Summary:
Good first impression. Like the site. With the correct SEO and promo and hence good traffic there's nothing there that would prevent potential clients / employers from investigating further. Good luck.

Jamie Linder commented:
Hey thanks -- when you say 'better nav' - do you mean the bg style, or the actual destinatiosn - home, portfolio, sketchbook, etc.?
thx!

David Babinec commented:I think all. Navigation need be nicer overall. Hover, bg, maybe font and lesser text

Jamie Linder commented:
Gotcha - thanks!

Summary:
Design is getting there. I love that cleaner look. You need dome text or graphic to round out the bottom left. It seems empty and unfinished.
LOVE the call to action button.
Usability is great. To the point, lays out what you do and makes it easy to go see more (I assume images are click able). very good
Strategy. well... how does that song go.."i wouldn't have to say I love you cause you'd already know"? That goes for "creative" as well. So it does not sit well that you say it but the site while nice is not too creative.
A suggestion below
