Website Design Services

for Artists

Ready to create

a fabulous art website?

Sound familiar?

  • The art should speak for itself, but
    my site looks … meh.

  • I know just enough to be dangerous.

  • Somebody else built my site, but it doesn’t really feel like me or my art.

  • I hold back because I have to call someone for every. single. tweak.

 
 
 
 
 

I get it.

I am an artist, too.
If you need a website, having another artist there

to guide you through the process is the key.

Let’s Begin!

Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it; Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.

— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, (and you gotta love any guy called Wolfgang)

 

The Elements of a Great Art Website

  • FIRE

    Your creative spark is alive in your
    art and your website.

    I will help you gather that fire and
    direct it to create a unique site
    you are proud to share with collectors, friends, family and students.

  • AIR

    Air is the mind - we’ll think it through, and make sure you have included everything you need for your business to run smoothly.

    This process will open up the future for you - it did for me and other artists I’ve helped on this journey.

  • WATER

    Systems are how everything flows, from the emotions in your art, to energy and money.

    I’ll make sure your systems are working correctly to make your life easier when you send a newsletter, sell a piece of art, or create an event.

  • EARTH

    When your site is live (even though it is floating through Internet Space), you’ll be able to maintain it yourself in real time, rather than have to call someone every time you need something.

    You’ll have clarity and lose the confusion about how to post your art, create a newsletter, or sell a product.

Here’s my simple process:

(Eugene Delecroix needed a website, so I created one for him.)

Eugene Delecroix’s Notebook - he’s planning his website.

 I will:

  • Send you a PDF with clear guidelines on how to prepare your content and images

  • Select the best template for you based on your preferences and needs

  • Build your site and organize your content to best feature your business and services

  • Train you on how to maintain your site through my Build Your Art Website online course, available to you when you purchase my design services.

You will:

  • Fill out a detailed questionnaire regarding your personal styling preferences, functional needs.

  • Upload everything I need - images, and text - in one Dropbox, in the correct format (I’ll show you how) on time so I can start on schedule

  • Review your site in a timely manner and give feedback according to our schedule so we can go live on schedule

What You’ll Get:

  • Up to 7 pages built for you:
    Home, About, Portfolio/Gallery, Blog, Store, Contact, Events

  • Your first newsletter built - and training on how its done

  • Easy training video course (Build Your Art Website)
    so you can maintain your site going forward

  • Quick 3-week turn-around

  • Launch Plan & Support

  • 20% off your first year of Squarespace


    Plus, ALL THE BORING STUFF:

  • Mobile responsiveness

  • SEO for each page

  • Domain connection or transfer

  • Social media connection

  • Website analytics built-in

Together we will Celebrate!

I’ll help you plan a launch event
(art giveaway, Facebook Live, Instagram Story)

to get your site out there!

Here are a few sites I’ve built:

Let’s talk website.

Email me with your thoughts about your website, latest challenges, and I’ll set up a time for us to talk. Squarespace is my chosen platform because it is so EASY, versatile. You CAN do this (and it is far less expensive than the traditional website design/build process.

Curious? Let’s talk!

What Happens Next

  • Explore your Options

    Fill out the questionnaire about your website - no obligation!

    We can talk on a Consultation Call
    to see where you are at.

    I offer two options:

    1. DIY / my Build Your Art Website Course

    2. Or, I can build your site for you and train you to maintain it.

  • Gather Your Content.

    If you decide to hire me to build your site, we will gather all your content and amazing images.

    When I receive all of this information, I will start building your site.

    In the meantime, you’ll have access to my course, Build Your Art Website, where you’ll learn how the basics of maintaining your site.

  • Design / Build / Launch!

    I’ll be moving levers and turning dials behind the curtain, but by the end of the first week, I’ll have a draft site ready for you to look over for any revisions.

    Then, I’ll help you develop a launch plan
    so you can feel excited going forward
    and know what to do next -
    besides crack a bottle of bubbly, of course!
