You need to have visual design skills to create a beautiful artist website. Here are some points to get you started:•
- Most Important: Use high-quality, professionally-photographed images. Excellence in, excellence out!
- Keep the website simple and elegant with the focus on the art.
- Create multiple galleries to compliment the work – just as a good physical gallery would do.
- Choose colors that compliment (not overpower) the work. Think of the colors you would use in a physical gallery to showcase your work – neutral colors like crème, white, gray, and good safe choices.
- Think “minimalist†not “busy†for the layout.
- Keep your copy (text) brief. Let the art speak for itself!
