How it works
Photograph a painting, give it a title and a price, mark something sold, in Saora Studio, your own private app.
That’s the whole job. No builder, no code, no developer.
Upload straight from your phone or camera, at any size. Every visitor gets a fast, crisp version. You never resize or convert anything.
When a collector searches your name, you come up. Each painting gets its own page, written so Google can find it, and new work is search-ready the moment it’s published.
Paste any painting’s link into WhatsApp or Instagram and the artwork itself appears as the preview, with title and details included.
Composed like an exhibition, hosted on fast global servers, kept online and up to date. Nothing for you to maintain, nothing to break.
Saora Studio
Photograph a new painting and it’s on your site in about a minute. No laptop, nothing to learn, nothing to break.
Try the StudioIt runs on sample work, so nothing you change goes anywhere.
The corners snap straight and the crop is done for you.
Title, price and details. Mark it sold whenever you like.
It’s live on your site in about a minute.
Templates
Click on any of the templates to try different fonts and colour palettes inside the Personalise panel. Find the look that works for you. More combinations are on the way.
Warm, serif, classic. A quiet gallery feel for figurative and traditional work.
Open
Pure white, modern, side navigation. The room disappears, the art stays.
Open
Light, quiet, organised in series. Every body of work in the side menu, one click away.
Open
Dark, dramatic, organised in series. Made for a career’s worth of work.
Open
Every template runs on the same system with different settings. Typography, colour, layout and tone are tuned per artist. Yours won’t look like anyone else’s.
The invisible part
Big, unoptimised images are why most artist sites feel slow. Saora converts every photo automatically, same painting, a fraction of the weight.
11.8s still loading on 4G…
0.4s done, before your visitor blinks
Simulation: typical timing for an unoptimised 8 MB image on a 4G connection, same painting both sides. Slow sites lose visitors and rank lower on Google.

The process
Start by picking the look that suits your work. Four templates today, with more being added. You can switch to a different one once a year, free.
We set up Saora Studio for you, a private app for your phone or computer. Photograph each painting and add its title, year, medium, size and price. Nothing to install.
Your works become your finished site: live, optimised for every device, composed like an exhibition. New work later? Add it in Studio, press Publish, and it’s live in minutes.
Want your-name.com? Register it in your name and we connect it for you. Already have a domain, or an email address on it? Keep both. Nothing about them changes.
