About the Brand

Artist on Art is a digital platform where artists share personal stories, creative processes, and connect with engaged fans through interactive content. The site’s goal was to foster authenticity, expand their audience, and build deeper connections between creators and admirers.

My Role

As UX designer and brand strategist, I led the full creative and functional build:

  • Brand messaging, UI/UX design, and site architecture
  • Wireframes, prototypes, and interactive design systems in Figma
  • Responsive Webflow development
  • CMS structure for artist profiles, interviews, and multimedia content
  • SEO optimization, analytics setup, and onboarding client workflows
  • Collaboration with photographers and content editors

The Challenge

Artist on Art needed a sophisticated yet accessible platform that:

  • Showcased diverse artist profiles and multimedia content
  • Made it easy for fans to browse by genre, theme, or artist
  • Supported storytelling via interviews, images, and embedded video
  • Was scalable, admin-friendly, and optimized for search visibility
