Built 50+ custom graphic assets for Cliff Studio's catalog on Tilda, each one made from scratch instead of pulled off a template pack.
Layering motion graphics into that catalog lifted viewer retention by roughly 30%. A separate pass at the actual production workflow, same catalog, cut delivery time by 20%.
95% client satisfaction came back on the post-project survey. Almost none of the written feedback mentioned speed or process, just the finished assets. People only review what they can see.
Still the number I watch closest on every project, though. The workflow decides whether the visible part ships on time or two weeks late.
What's the metric on your last project that the client never once saw, but that quietly decided whether the rest of it worked?

As a visual artist creating custom charcoal, graphite, and painted portraits, taking commissions through social media DMs is chaotic. You spend hours answering repetitive pricing questions, chasing high-resolution reference photos, calculating frame sizes, and tracking revision notes instead of actually creating art.
I built AtelierFlow on Base44 to replace messy DMs with a luxury, end-to-end automated fine art commission studio and client portal—featuring my own original artwork.
Key Automations & Features Built on Base44:
AI Reference Photo Analyzer & Dynamic Quote Engine: Collectors select their medium (Charcoal, Oil & Acrylic, Graphite, or Digital), dimensions, subject count, and framing, then upload a reference photo. Base44's AI analyzes the photo's lighting and contrast quality, calculates real-time pricing and delivery dates based on the active studio queue, generates a unique tracking code, and dispatches an automated confirmation email.
1-Click Studio Milestone Pipeline & Client Approval Loop: In the Artist Studio OS dashboard, advancing a commission stage (e.g., from "Reference Approved" to "Initial Sketch Ready") automatically recalculates progress, triggers an AI-drafted client update email, logs the event in the live Automation Activity Feed, and unlocks side-by-side work-in-progress previews in the Collector Tracking Portal.
24/7 AI Collector Concierge: Guides visitors on choosing the right medium and sizing, answers framing/shipping questions, and pre-fills their commission brief automatically.
How Judges Can Test in 30 Seconds:
Use the top "Demo View" toggle in the navbar to switch instantly between the public "Collector Experience" (Gallery, AI Configurator & Live Tracking Portal) and the backend "Artist Studio OS" (Kanban Pipeline, Live Automation Logs & Studio KPIs) with zero login friction.😊
Cutroom is a creative review workspace I built in Base44 for small studios. Feedback stays attached to the exact version, so the review history stays clear as the work changes.
The fictional Fieldwork campaign is the demo. Compare drafts side by side, pin a note to the artwork, resolve it and approve the current version. Approval creates a handoff task for each selected format, with a checklist and a CSV you can review and copy.
I built it around the part of creative production that keeps slipping back into chats: deciding what's approved and what needs exporting.
Creative Workflow and Prompt Breakdown — EXPORT TO LA
What if you could edit your way to Los Angeles instead of buying a plane ticket?
For the #CapCutWorldLAChallenge, I created a cinematic AI-powered comedy about a Kenyan creator who cannot afford a flight to LA, so he presses EXPORT on his editing project—and the editing timeline transforms reality itself.
He travels through futuristic tunnels, surreal dimensions, and impossible transitions before bursting through a glowing portal onto a spectacular creator-event stage. But the journey has one final twist!
This project combines creative storytelling, AI-generated visuals, cinematic transitions, sound design, and humor to explore the idea that imagination can take you anywhere.
My goal was to turn video editing into the story itself and create an unexpected, entertaining way to arrive at CapCut World LA.
Who needs a plane when you've got CapCut? ✨
