Prioritize quality website imagery

What's the most important aspect to the process of bringing a website for an artist to reality?

"Imagery," Brielle says. "It's all about image."

It's exactly the way Brielle took when she was building Dust and Form. "If you can, get other people who can help," she says. "I have found that having strong individuals in my corner has been vital to get genuine feedback and help when it comes to what my business can do online."

The "design and the overall concept" of Brielle's site was brought to life through "the incredible creatives at Bodega Ltd. And the photographers and stylists I had the pleasure of working with , who gave such a vibrant energy to my work."

"The natural and unhindered surfaces of my ceramics are an integral component of the soft and tranquil forms I seek to create," says Brielle. The same vision of art that is unhindered can be seen in the overall aesthetic and imagery of her website.
