Artizen — Art WordPress Theme

Artizen WordPress Theme is a creative Art Gallery & Creative Studio HTML5 WordPress theme built on Bootstrap 4, fully compatible with WordPress 6.x with full WooCommerce integration. It ships with 9 page templates, a filterable photo gallery, a full e-commerce module with cart and checkout, a blog module — all controlled from the WordPress admin and Customizer with zero coding required.

Built for WordPress developers, freelancers, and site owners delivering art gallery & creative studio html5 websites. The theme follows WordPress coding standards throughout: template hierarchy, action and filter hooks, wp_enqueue_scripts for all assets, and a child-theme-ready structure.
