Christine Dryden
Designer for Creative Professionals
For 18+ years, I’ve dedicated my work to helping artists, galleries, designers, and other creative small businesses launch and build their brands. As an artist, myself, I get the unique challenges of this market, and I’ll address your promotional and branding needs with efficiency and focus.
Let’s get started.
Ready to go? Don’t know exactly what you need? Need advice on how to plan your next steps?
Whether you want to hire me to help, or you just want to talk through your strategy with an experienced designer, we’ll begin with a consulting meeting, which we can do via phone, zoom, or in person.
Websites for Artists and Creatives
Website Packages
We’ll utilize Squarespace’s innovative, industry-leading platform to create a custom-designed site that will be easy for you to maintain.
Simple, or not-so-simple
Most clients’ projects fit into one of these two packages. If you need a custom estimate, we’ll discuss that on our consulting call. If you know what you need, select and book one of these packages and you’ll get my next-available design hours.
Website Essentials
Tell your story and share your work with a customized 1-5 page website including portfolio galleries, a blog/news page, and integrated social media.
Investment: $2400
Website EXCLUSIVE
If your offerings are more complex, you want to sell products on your site, or promote other services or events. Up to 10 pages, and lot’s of options!
Investment: $4200
Need a logo, too?
Add branding to your web package for a new logos, color and font selections, social media profile and cover images, branding guide, and a business card.
Investment: $1200
Design Days blocks
Maybe you already have a Squarespace website but it needs some attention to freshen things up, update content or add a new page.
Using our flexible design days option, you will book one or more half-days and get the dedicated attention of an experienced designer for an uninterrupted 3-hour block of time.
We’ll get clear ahead of time on what you want to accomplish, you’ll gather the content I need to implement, and a few hours later we can marvel at how quickly those nagging items have been handled!
A flexible approach to your to-do list.
Use a design block to tackle any of your design and marketing wish list. We’ll discuss your priorities and how much we can expect to accomplish in a block, and I will get busy blazing through your to-dos. You’ll get the advantage of the speed and agility developed in my decades of experience.
Some ideas on what we can accomplish:
-
replace outdated content
add new work to your portfolio
promote an upcoming event
create and schedule blog posts

Get set up for email marketing and build a newsletter template.

Creative people are my people.
I love helping artists and designers reflect the aesthetic of their work into the world with professionalism and polish. I have worked with 50+ artists and galleries, 20+ interior designers and builders, 20+ non-profits, and 30+ innovative small businesses. I’ve helped plan and promote their art shows, developed flexible and beautiful websites, designed books and course platforms, and implemented custom-designed branding across the web and physical spaces.
