Fine Art Websites with a Gallery Look and Feel

Fine art websites or artist websites should have a gallery look and feel. Unfortunately when browsing for artwork online, most art collectors discover that the internet is cluttered with really bad art websites. Artist and gallery websites are notorious for having poor design, disorganized layouts, confusing navigation, and horrible color choices. Way too often, images are too small and pixelated or they have not been optimized for efficient download times and make viewing art a slow and arduous process.

Browsing an artist or gallery website should be more like walking through a high-end gallery or art museum. In most cases, the design should be cleans and the background colors should not distract from the artwork itself.

Fine art websites are all about imagery,,, or they should be. Images take time to download and the bigger the image the bigger the file size which increases download times.

More than Fine Art Websites - A Fine Art Community and Market Place

Browse Fine Art World Artists
While Fine Art World designs and develops high-end artist, gallery, and fine art websites, it's important to remember that FAW is also a fine art community and marketplace. In fact Fine Art World started out as a community website before it introduced its Independent artist and gallery sites or "Stand Alone" websites.

Fine Art World's goal from the beginning has been to provide the art world or community with a website where artists and galleries display and sell artwork and fine art photography and art collectors quickly and easily browse and buy original artwork and fine art prints.

This translated into developing artist and gallery websites located within www.fineartworld.com called Community Websites. Each artist and gallery receives one of these community websites and can post information like gallery statements, biographies, news, events, lists, custom content, and of course artwork. Artists and galleries benefit from the marketing power of Fine Art World and the power of numbers.

Fine Art World Community Websites are easy to manage with built-in content management systems that anyone with a basic computer understanding can use. Plus each site comes with seamlessly built-in e-commerce tools powered by PayPal.
