Accessibility

Last updated: 21 October 2026

I want everyone to be able to enjoy my art and shop on this site, including people who use screen readers, keyboard navigation, magnification or other assistive technology.

What I'm aiming for

I aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA. This is the standard recognised in Australia under the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 and used internationally.

What I've done

  • High-contrast text (light text on a dark background)

  • Page titles, a page language, and a layout that works on phones and when zoomed in

  • Menus, product options and the "Add to cart" button can be used with a keyboard

  • Text descriptions (alt text) on images, with more detailed descriptions of the artwork being added over time

  • Clearly structured headings and plain-English policies

Known limitations

I'm a one-person business, so some things are still being improved:

  • Animated artwork: some NFT previews are animated images. If any animation bothers you, please let me know.

  • Checkout is provided by Big Cartel, and payments are handled by Stripe and PayPal. I don't control the accessibility of those pages.

  • NFT marketplace: NFT links go to XRP Cafe, a third-party website I don't control.

  • Contact form security check: the contact form may show an automated "verify you are human" check. If this causes problems, email me directly (details below).

Need help or found a problem?

If you have trouble using any part of this site, or need information in another format, please contact me and I'll do my best to help, including taking your order by email.

Please tell me the page address and what went wrong. I aim to reply within 5 business days.

If you're not satisfied with my response and you're in Australia, you can contact the Australian Human Rights Commission (humanrights.gov.au).
