A well-designed website is one of the most important tools to present your work professionally in the industry. It gives you a dedicated space to share your practice, show your work, and make it easy for people to find and contact you.

Unlike social media, your website offers focus and depth into who you are and what you do. Visitors can explore your work on their own terms, without distraction or algorithm-driven content. This supports both your reputation and career goals like selling work, securing commissions, or attracting exhibition and media opportunities.

It functions as your professional online hub, housing available artworks, exhibitions, projects, your bio, CV, achievements, news, and contact information (among a few!). A professional, well designed website can also build trust. When someone searches your name, they should find a clear, current, and well-presented site that reflects your practice.

The best websites are simple and easy to use. Prioritise clean design, intuitive layout, and purposeful content that guides visitors through your work and towards action, such as purchasing an artwork, joining your mailing list, or sending an enquiry.

To help you get started or refine what you already have, we’ve gathered a selection of artist websites that get it right. These examples span disciplines and styles, but all share one thing in common: they are clear, professionally presented, and thoughtfully structured to support the artist’s work and goals.
