About Gouache
Gouache is a portfolio template for illustrators. The home page opens on a studio wall: prints taped up like a real pinboard, which visitors can drag around with the mouse. Below it sit your commissions, a small print shop and a commission form that asks for budget and deadline up front.
Good for
Illustrators working on books, editorial, posters, packaging and murals
Artists who sell prints or originals next to client work
Painters, printmakers and letterers who want the work to look handmade, not boxed in a grid
Pages
Home: studio wall, recent commissions, clients, prints, how a commission works, a quote and a call to action
Work: every project from the Work CMS, with category and colour tags
Project: brief, process, gallery and a client quote for each piece (8 examples included)
Prints: a shop from the Prints CMS with price, size, paper, edition and a buy link per print (6 examples)
About: a polaroid portrait, bio, tools and exhibitions

Good to know
The print shop links each print to a checkout you already have (Gumroad, Shopify, Lemon Squeezy, Etsy…). Framer itself doesn't take payments.
The form sends submissions to your Framer project, or to email and other tools through Framer's form settings.
