Mridula Basi - Squarespace Website #artists #portfolios #ecommerce

Mridula is a mixed media artist currently working out of her studio in Dunkeld, Perthshire

Mridula originally came to us for a portfolio site & has since returned to setup an online shop! Using Squarespace’s inbuilt e-commerce functionality made this a straightforward process and we were able to style the shop cohesively with our client’s existing site. We also customised the shop to allow for enquiry-only products - perfect for an artist selling one-off pieces. It was decided that using a neutral colour palette was best as it allows Mridula’s work to take center stage and sits well with the vibrant mix of sketches and paintings. The end result is a user friendly site which makes it easy for customers to browse and purchase our client’s latest works!

Thanking the entire team (especially those that patiently put up with my pretty basic IT knowledge) for putting together my website and making the long due renovation happen last year. As a traditional artist who wants to run away from all things digital, it was an education to figure out what IT was needed for my art practice to survive in the current times. IT has been a major requirement for all business, especially in the last twelve months. Thank you all for the consistent professional support. Most impressive part of it all for me was when your team members were interested not just to provide a service I was willing to pay for, they took the initiative to work through many unique aspects of designing my website customising it to suit the changes in my studio practice and marketing strategy. It truly is tailor made. There will be more new ideas to explore as this year unfolds, I'm immensely grateful that the D&G team took on an anarchic artist like me on as a client. (By the way, the ongoing self help videos are great, lets me see how you clever IT folks do some of your magic).
