E.Webscapes Design Studio

Chris and March Dodge approached E.Webscapes for a custom designed solution to display their beautiful collection of Asian artwork. Having used WordPress in the past, they were comfortable with the interface and features, so we decided we would build their new art gallery website using the WordPress platform. .

Their request was for a simple, but striking design with a red, black and gold color scheme. They provided me with some hand drawn elements they wanted me to try and use in a design – mainly the gold leaf that you see used as their logo. That leaf started out as a pencil drawing on paper that they scanned and sent over to me to try and make a logo out of. I used that leaf to create the gold logo you see on their site today.

I incorporated the Next Gen Photo Gallery plugin for WordPress to provide them an easy way to upload and group the images of their artwork into albums and different galleries on the site – all wrapped up into the custom 2-column WordPress theme created special, for their gallery site.

Their comments when it was all done?…

Lisa — I just went on there and it looks AWESOME!!!! You see the leaves behind “the finest in Asian art”? That’s like the banyan leaves [that we sent over to you] ! Great minds thinking alike…

Hey, Lisa — thanks. The leaf at the top looks great!
