Do Artists Need A Website?

Many artists do not have a website and may have other venues of showing their art and creating visibility. While we perfectly understand that it is very hard for artists to create their work and manage a business we believe that it is crucial for an artist to have a website. Here are our thoughts of why we believe an artist should have a website.
