Project Background

Anthony Whelan is a writer and artist who needed a website to showcase his portfolio and provide links for people to buy.  The site had to be easy for him to manage himself in order to keep costs low.  Anthony had used Backdrop CMS as an employee of another client and was happy with the user interface.

Project Highlights

  • A simple solution to allow sales of paintings was needed but without full e-commerce capabilities was needed and a custom solution was implemented with a webform.
  • The site needed to display paintings so larger copies of the image were given a watermark to prevent unauthorised use of intellectual property.
  • A custom theme was designed, drawing on influences from other writer and artist websites.
