I really like the simplicity of Tom Gauld's website. The stark white background gives a feeling of an art gallery space which, in essence, this website is: it really makes you focus on the artwork. Although it is simple, i like the little touches which makes it 'his', for example, the typography.

Again, the white background stands out on Caroline Pedler's website. There is alot more colour on her website but it is still really professional, her artwork really stands out. The links on Caroline's website are really clear too and the website as a whole is easy to navigate.

Another website with a white background! I am sensing a recurring theme...
I was really drawn to the colours and images on Meg Hunt's website and most times i look at it there are new images which is really cool. I think it's important that if you want to create a successful online presence then blogs and websites etc need to be updated regularly.

I like how Laura's website is organised and i like how you can see a variety of her work on the home page, not just similar drawings but a really good mixture of stuff. I also chose this website as i just really like the artwork!

A slight deviation from white (!) but i really like the aesthetic of Abi's website. I like the circular images of her work, i think in some way it makes you want to see more because you can really tell that the original artwork is much larger as opposed to squares which sometimes look like miniature versions of the artwork. The only thing i don't really like is the text, i really like seeing the artist's own typography on their websites, it gives you an early indication of their style before you even see the images.
