Organizing your artwork with series and tags

As your portfolio grows, finding a specific piece — or showing a coherent body of work — gets harder. ArtHelper gives you two ways to organize: series (a group of related pieces you choose), and tags (short labels you attach to a piece, like “landscape” or “commission”). This guide walks through both.

How tags work

Tags are short labels you attach to a piece of artwork. They’re useful for filtering — for example, viewing only your “watercolor” pieces, or only pieces tagged “sold”. You can add as many tags as you want.

How to add tags to a piece

  1. Open the piece you want to tag from My Artwork.

  2. Open the details view for the piece (click the piece, then open its details/edit panel).

  3. Find the Tags field.

  4. Type a tag and press Enter to add it. Repeat for more tags.

  5. Save the changes.

Tip

Keep tags short and reusable — single words or short phrases. “Landscape” works better than “Landscape painted in 2024 during my Maine trip.” Use the description field for long context.

How to filter your portfolio by tag

  1. Go to My Artwork.

  2. Click Filter (the Filter by tag button).

  3. Type to search through your tags, or pick from the list.

  4. Switch between AND (only pieces with all selected tags) and OR (pieces with any selected tag).

  5. The view filters to just those pieces. Click Clear all selected to reset.

How series work

A series is a curated grouping you create from selected pieces — typically a body of work that belongs together (your “Maine coast” series, your “winter portraits”). Unlike tags, a series has its own page, title, and description, so it can be a thing you point people at.

How to create a series

  1. Go to My Artwork.

  2. Click pieces to select them. A selection toolbar appears at the bottom of the screen.

  3. With two or more pieces selected, click Explore With AI in the toolbar. ArtHelper creates a new series from your selection.

  4. You’ll be taken to the series page where you can give it a title and description.

Note

The button is labeled Explore With AI because, beyond just creating the series, it lets the Assistant work across all selected pieces at once. Whether you want a series page, an AI brainstorm across the group, or both, the same button starts you off.

How to edit or delete a series

  1. Open the series from My Artwork.

  2. Open the series details panel.

  3. Edit the title or description and save, or click Delete to remove the series.

Deleting a series doesn’t delete the underlying artwork — the individual pieces stay in your portfolio.

Common questions

What’s the difference between a series and a tag?

A tag is a label you attach to one piece, used for filtering. A series is a named group of pieces with its own page, description, and identity — useful when you want to present a body of work as a coherent project.

Can a piece be in more than one series?

Yes. A piece can belong to several series at once.

Can a piece have multiple tags?

Yes. Add as many as you find useful.

Is there a limit to how many tags I can have?

No. You can build out as many tags as makes sense for your portfolio. Most artists end up with 10-30 they actually use regularly.

Are tags and series visible to the public?

Public pieces show their tags and series on your public artist profile, so visitors can browse by them too. Private pieces and their tags stay private to you.
