Accessibility Statement

I’m committed to making my website and my artwork accessible to as many people as possible. I want this space to feel welcoming, clear, and usable for visitors of all abilities.

I’m actively working toward meeting the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) and improving the experience for screen‑reader users, keyboard navigation, and visitors who benefit from clear structure, alt text, and readable contrast. Because my site includes images of artwork, I’m continually updating alt descriptions and layout choices to support accessibility without compromising the visual experience.

If you ever have trouble accessing content, notice something that could be improved, or need information in a different format, I’d truly appreciate hearing from you. You can reach me at sarahgravesart@outlook.com, and I’ll do my best to help.

Accessibility is an ongoing process, and I’m grateful for your patience as I continue to make this site better for everyone.
