E3/E4 Portfolio
For this year's portfolio in E3/E4, we're going to use Adobe Spark as our platform to design and create your portfolio. What's unique about Adobe Spark is that it's a free, web-based platform that doesn't require any HTML/CSS coding skills.
We will utilize "Native American Studies" as a conceptual design strategy for your Spark Portfolio.
