splitting portfolio entries to different pages (also set up guide has DB issue)

hi there!

i was wondering if it’s possible to add portfolio entries to two different pages. i have photography portfolio entries, and other visual art portfolio entries (watercolor, ink, etc.) separated into two different categories. currently the portfolio main page on my site is set to be the photography portfolio (with the appropriate portfolio entries all under one category showing). i would like to add the other visual art portfolio entries to a different page on my site. is there a way to do that (aside from creating a new gallery block)?

also, side note: went looking to the setup guide to see if there was anything about this and got this message: Error establishing a database connection

fyi. ??

thanks so much for your time!
