Tom Wheeler shares the journey of developing ArtSites, a Drupal-powered platform tailored for visual artists needing affordable, functional websites. With a background in both art and web development, Wheeler created a solution addressing common artist needs like image galleries, category organization, and optional e-commerce. Using Drupal's multi-site and installation profiles, ArtSites enables quick, turn-key website setups for artists with minimal ongoing maintenance.

Each ArtSites website offers customizable themes, category-specific menu items, and a pre-built e-commerce framework powered by Drupal Commerce. Artists can showcase their work in gallery format and seamlessly activate e-commerce features if they decide to sell. Priced at $200 annually, ArtSites provides an affordable, commission-free option compared to traditional e-commerce platforms. Wheeler’s aim is to provide a user-friendly, artist-focused solution that simplifies web management while preserving functionality.
