Hi all! I'm wondering If I can get your thoughts on this, because I can't seem to come to a clear consensus with online research. Do you think it's ok to include fan art in your portfolio? Does anyone here include it in their portfolio? I just finished Inktober using a Harry Potter theme (my IG handle is @kirsten.mcgonigal.art if you want to see). Some of the images I created look really nice when I convert them to gray scale, and would work well as examples of spot illustration in my portfolio, but I'm hesitating on some of them, especially the portraits of well known characters like Hermione and Draco because they are clearly fan art. I would love to hear your thoughts, opinions, and experience with this!
