Meet Evert Esterhuizen – architect turned full-time artist, studio dweller, and general master of all things brush and canvas. Evert paints magic into life with watercolour and acrylics. He started experimenting with paint while still in architecture school (because who really sticks to just one passion?), and what began as a creative outlet became a full-blown, celebrated career. With many national exhibitions under his belt and art flying off to new homes around the globe, one thing was clear: Evert needed a digital home for his work.
Paintings? Stunning.
Creative process? Inspiring.
Website? In need of a revamp.
Evert needed an online gallery space that did justice to his vibrant, expressive work – something as creative and bold as the artist himself. A place to showcase, sell, and connect.
This wasn’t just a website project – it was an art gallery experience. We leaned into Evert’s unique style and created a digital space that feels just like stepping into his world. Think: unconventional layout, bold colours, and hand-drawn animations that bring personality in all the right places.
The heart of the site? The gallery, of course. Visitors can browse his work in an immersive gallery and read the story behind each piece – because every brushstroke has something to say. We also added the practical bits: framing options, pricing info, and a direct line to Evert for purchases or commissions.
Creative. Bold. Unmistakably Evert.
A gallery with soul and personality – just like the artist himself.
One very happy artist, and one very excited design team. Bringing Stoepgallery to life was an absolute joy. If you’re in the market for beautiful, emotive art (or just want to stare at pretty things online for a while), do yourself a favour and go visit Stoepgallery.
Not sure where to begin? Just need a sounding board? We’re here for all of it.
