Web savvy artist: ellie harrison
It’s easy to set out to create awebsite, and then get
bogged down by howmuch content you could include.
It is always a good idea to identify other artistswhose
websiteswork particularlywell. This should help you
avoidwasting time creating content that you don’t
need. Ellie Harrison’swebsite is a great example of
good practice.

HoW THE SITE WorkS
The front page has a header with changing images of works, all of
which are labelled, giving a good overview of the artist’s work. Each
image is clickable, providing quick access to more information about
projects. The statement on the front page introduces Ellie’s practice
and some recent projects. The website’s aims are also outlined – it
is an archive of gallery-based works and a portal into web-based
works.
