MakeArt was created by an artist with a technical background, working with experienced developers, to build practical tools for real artists.
The goal is simple: help artists stay independent, visible, and commercially active — without giving away control of their work.
Artists are rightly concerned about how their work is being used online — especially with AI, scraping, and loss of ownership.
Your art is yours. It is not a dataset, and it is not here to be repurposed.
Your images are not processed by AI, not sent to AI systems, and not used for training — under any circumstance.
Our art tools run locally in your browser. Your images stay on your device unless you choose to upload them.
When you upload artwork to your gallery or shop, it is displayed only as your work. We do not use, sell, or license your images to AI systems.
We control what happens on MakeArt — and AI is not used on your artwork here.
We can control how MakeArt operates. We cannot control the wider internet.
Any image published on any public website may be copied or scraped by third parties without permission. This is not unique to MakeArt.
What we guarantee is simple: MakeArt itself does not use your work for AI, training, or repurposing. Your work remains yours.
Artists keep 100% of their sales.
No commissions on artworks, products, workshops, or courses.
Tools support artists — not replace them.
Built for planning, learning, organisation, and promotion. Not imitation.
Direct connection.
Artists connect directly with buyers, students, and communities.
Real-world focus.
Supports exhibitions, workshops, galleries, courses, and events.
As automated content increases, real human work becomes more important — not less.
Artists need platforms that support them, not systems that extract from them.
MakeArt is built to give artists tools, visibility, and income — without taking control of their work.
