The Artist Studio is a creative and marketing agency on South Street in Sherborne. We work with businesses across Dorset, Somerset and the UK on website design, branding, content, SEO and advertising.

We plan advertising, SEO, social content and photography and video alongside design, illustration and web development. The work is made in-house, whether you need one service or a wider project.

You work directly with the people making the work. We discuss your priorities, agree the scope and fee, and keep you involved as the project develops.

Our clients include independent makers, specialist businesses and local events, including Rose of Jericho, The Country Crib and Sherborne Castle Country Fair.

Chris, founder and creative director of The Artist Studio

Hi, I’m Chris.

I’ve worked in digital marketing for over 20 years. I started The Artist Studio to bring design, content and marketing into one team.

I wanted clients to work directly with the people making the work, with clear prices and fewer layers between a brief and its delivery.

Make it look great.Make it work.Make it grow.

  1. Design, content and marketing together.

  2. Direct contact with the studio.

  3. A clear scope before we start.

Meet the team.

How we work.

  1. The brief

    We discuss your business, audience and priorities, then agree what the project needs to include.

  2. Design and delivery

    We develop the design, content or campaign, with review stages and practical decisions agreed around the brief.

  3. Review and handover

    We hand over the agreed work and explain how to use it. Where ongoing marketing is part of the brief, we review the available data and discuss what to do next.
