I finally buckled down, and worked on my website design to get it fully up and running.
I did the full design with CSS to keep it clean, and as free of images, and clutter as I could. The only images on here at all are just my thumbnails showing my art.

PS: The sliding on angles and IE don't mix that well, so it is a little jumpy, but only with IE.

I like the overall style. Clean and slick.
I don't think that "accent" color should be used for the body text - it kind of dampens the effect, and the point of it being an accent. It's more noticeable on the "Art" page, where the page is almost drowned in that color by the text. Consider switching its color with the headers', but you'd probably want to change the header style to pull that off. You could also consider introducing a second color for a two-tone color scheme, or using a less bold variant of the original color for the body. See what works.
I appreciate the design aesthetic for minimal use of images, but I feel the main page is a bit too bare. It's the first thing the user sees, and it doesn't have that initial "wow" factor a graphic design portfolio should have.
The links on the art page are difficult to see. I didn't see them there until I tabbed to find the links.
The artwork pages are well done. Clean layout and functional.
I like the innovative method of switching pages. Very nice
Mootools by any chance?
If this is the case, do you have a Pure Html/CSS site, as many people are increasingly blocking javascript and this can also be advantageous for people with older browsers as client-side scripting can sometimes be unpredictable depending on the browser.
Have you checked for compatibility across Browsers? For me, that is always the big challenge.
really really basic. Add some pictures or something in and it will make it look better
