Questions asked about Website Design for Artists
What makes an Artists website different? It focuses on the style of the artist. An artist website is like a studio visit. It’s an opportunity for people to see all of your artwork and learn about you as an artist. An important difference between an artist website and a studio visit is that your website is always open and anyone from anywhere in the world can come in. The key to being successful in this art world is to be visible.
Why just Squarespace? It offers the most flexibility and design possibility. I stick to one platform. Squarespace offers valuable customer service for those who choose to manage their own edits and additions.
What about Social Media? Social media should never take the place of a personal website. Social media platforms are great for sharing your work and engaging with your audience, but they have limitations compared to a website gallery. As an artist, having a website gallery is much more beneficial than relying solely on social media platforms.
Are Artist websites more expensive? I am a strong believer in affordable website design. A creative artist website can be designed without any extra cost. The artistic style of an individual can simplify the design process because there is a visible theme to work with. This creates a “look” that truly reflects the artist.
What is an online exhibition? It can be referred to as a virtual exhibition, online gallery or cyber-exhibition. It is an exhibition whose venue is in the artists’ website. Unlike physical exhibitions, online exhibitions are not restricted by time; they are not forced to open and close but may be available 24 hours a day.
