An artist’s website is defined as any website a creative uses to display and/or sell their creative services, be it paintings, sculptures, print media, illustrations, performance, etc. With my artistic clients we using a combination of Wordpress and Woocommerce to sell artwork, unless they have some other 3rd party system to sell art in mind. For photo galleries, that is, a section where the client displays their artwork and explains more about the inspiration behind their art project, I usually create a custom section using custom post types and Advanced Custom Fields. Artist’s websites always have a bespoke theme that incorporates the artist’s own artwork into the design.

For my performance artists, we use custom-made event systems to display upcoming performances and archive past performances, and encourage users to register their interest in and purchase tickets for upcoming plays and shows.
