Artist Growth System™

Accessibility

Artist Growth System aims to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA, across both the platform and the studio sites it generates. We treat accessibility as ongoing work rather than a finished box.

What we do today

  • Semantic headings and landmarks throughout the platform and studio templates.
  • Alternative text fields on every artwork upload, prompted during publishing.
  • Full keyboard operation for navigation, admin, galleries, cart, and checkout.
  • Visible focus outlines and status cues that never rely on colour alone.
  • A text-size control and light/dark themes in the account menu.
  • Motion kept subtle and reduced automatically when your system asks for less motion.

Studio sites

Accessible structure is built into the templates every studio uses, so improvements we make reach all studios at once. Individual studios control their own text and images, so some content — such as image descriptions — depends on the studio.

Known limitations

Some content published before structured alt text was prompted carries short descriptions only. A few third-party surfaces — payment fields hosted by Stripe and embedded PDF previews — follow their vendors' own accessibility behaviour, which we do not control.

Tell us about a barrier

If any part of the platform kept you from doing what you came to do, we want to hear about it — the page, what you were trying to do, and the assistive technology you use, if any. Write to digitallandscaper@gmail.com. We aim to reply within five business days and will offer an alternative way to complete the task.

Assessment approach

This statement reflects our own review — keyboard passes, screen-reader spot-checks, and automated contrast and structure testing. It has not been assessed by an independent third party.
