Accessibility Statement

I am committed to ensuring that M. Hayes Fine Art is accessible to as many people as possible.

Everyone should be able to enjoy artwork, browse the site comfortably, and access information without barriers.

I aim to make the website easy to navigate, readable, and usable for visitors of all abilities.

1. Measures Taken to Support Accessibility

To support accessibility on this website, I have taken the following steps:

Using clean, structured layout design
Maintaining clear colour contrast between text and background
Providing descriptive alt-text for images where appropriate
Using readable fonts and scalable text
Ensuring navigation is consistent across all pages
Designing the site to be compatible with screen readers
Making forms, buttons, and interactive elements clearly labelled
Avoiding flashing animations or disruptive motion

2. Ongoing Efforts

Accessibility is an ongoing priority.
As I continue to add new artwork, images, and content, I make every effort to ensure these additions remain accessible and meet current standards.

If issues are found, I will work to correct them as quickly as possible.

4. Limitations & Alternatives

While I aim for full accessibility, some content may not yet be optimised — especially older artwork photos or third-party widgets (such as Wix apps or social media embeds).
If you experience difficulty accessing any part of the site, I can provide alternative formats, descriptions, or assistance.
