Top-NJ Web Design Firm Launches Fine Art Watercolor Website

Hudson Horizons Launches MicksWaterColors.com

Hudson Horizons, an awarding winning web development firm, is proud to announce the launch of the redesigned site for artist, Mick McAndrews, www.mickswatercolors.com.  This redesign was completed to enhance the experience of both site visitors and customers. The site also improves the site’s e-commerce capabilities with increased versatility and organization.

Born and raised in northern New Jersey, Mick McAndrews has lived in Brandywine Valley for over 20 years, surrounding himself in an environment that has never ceased to inspire his artistic works. The Jersey native is a self-taught watercolor artist who has painted a diversity of scenes from the New England coast to striking places abroad. In 2010 McAndrews was honored for his watercolor “Wilmington Street,” and received the Richard Greenwood Memorial Award for Traditional Watercolor by the Philadelphia Watercolor Society. The fine arts painter is a member of several watercolor societies and has most recently participated in the Annual Yellow Springs Art Show this past May.

Hudson Horizons provided the Mick McAndrews site with minor changes that made major improvements. The content management system or CMS conversion allows Mick McAndrews Fine Art to easily update the gallery as well as events on a regular basis. This user-friendly system ensures that buyers, professional galleries, and fans stay on top of artist news.

Having formally created the site in 2010, it has been important for Mick McAndrews to continue cultivating his relationships in the art world. The site redesign now features an aesthetic that suits and compliments his style. The gallery also serves as a portfolio of past and current works on sale.

“I love [my website] and I’m doing my best to spread the word among my clients and along the way, share the praises of Hudson Horizons. Everyone at the company has been great to work with providing superior customer service and giving the phrase ‘can do attitude’ new meaning,” said Mick McAndrews, artist and owner of Mick McAndrews Fine Art.

By teaming with Hudson Horizons, Mick McAndrews has broadened his demographic on an online platform to increase user interaction worldwide. The site redesign will greater publicize Mick’s work to help build fruitful relationships with both avid fine art enthusiasts and other painters in the artistic circuit.

Hudson Horizons looks forward to continuing the positive relationship that has formed with artist and founder, Mick McAndrews. This business relationship will only foster an even stronger rapport as Hudson Horizons provides comprehensive web solutions and digital advice.

About Mick McAndrews
Although Mick McAndrews was born and raised in northern New Jersey, he has lived in the Brandywine Valley for the last 20 years. His personal journey as an artist into watercolor began with joining a beginner's drawing class at the Delaware Art Museum, after he had marveled at the works of students who'd just completed the course. However, primarily self-taught, Mick relies on an occasional workshop to learn, grow, and experience the art of watercolor with others to gain a new perspective. He is endlessly inspired by the natural environment of the Brandywine Valley and his travels both in the U.S. and abroad. Much of Mick's recent work has been completed on location, or to use the French term, en plein air! For more information on the artist, visit Mick McAndrews at www.mickswatercolors.com.
