Project Description

artGarden™ is for new artists who have trouble breaking into the art sphere. artGarden gives equal opportunity for paid gigs to new and established artists by allowing them to connect to potential clients through a unique bidding platform. Unlike other gig marketplace platforms, artGarden allows any registered artist to view and bid on user art commissions, giving the client the ability to set the price point while also giving lesser known artists a chance at taking on a commission that otherwise might not be accessible.

Planned updates

At the moment, this app is the minimum viable product. We hope to make updates to improve the UI/UX, and add more bidding functionality as well as features (such as setting a contract bidding, contract negotiations, pricing model, etc).
