Contact page and Contact Information:
Contact page should always be in your navigation — make it easy to find
Two ways to surface contact info:
In the nav as its own page
As a button in the footer that links to the contact page (page can stay in "not linked" so it doesn't appear in the nav)
What to include on your contact page:
City and state — art consultants often search by location; leaving it off narrows your reach, not broadens it
Email address — yes, you'll get some spam; worth it for the real inquiries
Phone number — optional, but helpful for time-sensitive project inquiries from galleries and consultants
Contact form — fine to have, but don't rely on it alone; give people multiple ways to reach you
Social media links
Studio photos if you want a personal touch
⚠️ Don't hide behind a form only — the more ways people can reach you, the better
⭐ Core advice: make it impossible for someone to not be able to contact you — that's the whole point of the page
