Hi Guys I have not posted here in years but I am on a hunt for a job again after the latest Digital Extreme layoffs. Here is my site.

It's a nice start, but I think the main page is too busy - art, text description, and sidebar make for a fairly crowded space.

The white background is a bit stark; a medium gray (such as that seen on a certain artist forum ) is more typical. The title banner is also a bit minimalist, at least for an artist's site; many artists use this as an additional opportunity to show-off. You should also include at contact mailto: link in the header.

The menu, while functional, is also a bit minimalistic. A larger font would help, as would a horizontal line separating the menu from the images.

If possible, I'd expand the image for each project to take up a standard screen width and move the title of the project into the image. I'd move the "Projects Worked On" to its own page, although it really seems redundant since it is already in the resume.

For your professional projects (e.g. Star Trek: The Game), I'd include more information about what you did - from the project, it looks like you were an environmental artist. Job titles are fine, but they tend to vary greatly from one company to the next. You should also include a link to the project's website, if possible, on the project site.

I'd also include texture maps and wireframes, at least for the personal work.

Your resume has an odd selection of fonts and font sizes. Overall, the font feels small, and there doesn't seem to be much logic about the formatting, coloring, and style chosen for the entries - more important items actually seem smaller... I'd take a look at similar resumes to see how others have formatted things.
