Description
- Obsidian: An Artist Portfolio Squarespace Website Template
- Obsidian is a dark, glossy template for artists whose work spans many forms. A sleek header menu leads into horizontally scrolling galleries where every piece hangs at its own size and height, like a salon wall, and drifts at its own pace as you scroll. Text panels sit naturally between works, and a close-up viewer with a magnifying loupe invites visitors to look deeper into every surface.
