But about optimisation: I think u should make a pagination - is too much items on homepage.

I'd love to be able to make my own personal professional website, but unfortunately I'm not that experienced so I had to use a free service
 
Nothing wrong with the websites that make free websites lol...

Saying that. At first glance, the site appears very flat. No depth to it what so ever and the colours need sorting.

Also, add a logo of some sort, just for identity.
 
Trust me. Its awesome and prodigious as like Pinterest. But there is absence login option most important, i couldn't find it.
 
looks good,
my problem is the banner
The dark green with grey is just too hard to diferenciate for my eyes
just doesn't look pleasant
you could try and replace the grey banner with something a bit more light and graphical
 
Overall appearance is average. I agree with Inkz, very flat. I tend to notice functionality over appearance.

A lot of spelling and capitalizing mistakes throughout, most noticeable is "Contac" in the banner.

This is a complete personal choice, but I will only use brush sites that include examples of the brush set and not just a fancy thumbnail image made with the brush set. I want to see what the individual brushes look like. Something like this.....

Increase the size and color of the "Older Posts" and "Newer Posts".

If at all possible, loose the "Tags" column.
 
Honestly, it's really plain and boring. I'm sorry to be blunt but it's very "old" looking. It looks like this was designed in 2004. As others have said, it needs some branding (logo, header design, etc.) and it needs to have a better color scheme. Right now, it's a mix of all kinds of blues, greens and browns. If you're going for an "earthy" feel, it needs to be altered to look right.

As others have also said, do you own the rights to these brush designs? If not, this is copyright violation.

That's old looking but it seems to me that great User Interface (IU).
 
I suggest to put the blogroll in sidebar,, or just limit the number, currently the blogroll create unusual height...
 
What can i add that already has not been said. But i did notice this 2013-06-10 19_45_45-.png i went to the authors web site and could not find this theme... it's either out of date which is why your site looks the same or got it for free somewhere.

I'm all for getting things free... but i'm pretty sure you could update this theme to something more modern than the one you have..

IF this is your only or main site, and you hope to monetize it and make money from any adds etc.. i personally would get a paid theme with added options of updates as WordPress updates... No links at the bottom to other theme makers and would look more Pro than the one you have now...

It's not just about functionality, it's about the overall look and usability for the user, it should be nice and clean with responsive colors , easy to navigate, and your adds should not be right at the top when someone opens your page..as already stated a logo is needed..

I think you should have a FAQ page giving people the knowledge of who created the brushes giving you the right to post them on your site.. this clears things up on who made or owns them .
 
I'm sorry to say this, but your website looks quite boring. The reason is the absence of the logo and favicon, as well as text missing after the header. The color combination also looks dull. You can change the font type for the header part, as well replace the background image with something more colorful.
