Stop cobbling together spreadsheets and Instagram posts. Run your practice like the business it is.
Built By an Artist
&Kept was created by Ladianne Henderson— a working fine artist, fiber artist, and creative director. She exhibits internationally and knows firsthand what it takes to document, price, and protect a body of work.
She built &Kept because she needed it herself — the documentation tools that exist are designed for collectors and institutions, not for the artists who actually create the work. This is the tool she wished she had when a gallery asked for provenance records, or when she needed insurance documentation for a traveling exhibition.
The same creative practice behind WoolTribe and her fine art studio — now building the platform that follows the full lifecycle of every creative object.

Every piece you create deserves a documented chain of origin. Buyers, galleries, and institutions need provenance — and so does your estate. &Kept creates it automatically from your documentation.
Market-informed analysis of your materials, technique, exhibition history, and comparable sales. Heritage assessments with four-value ranges including insurance replacement. Not a replacement for a formal appraisal — the data foundation you need to price intelligently.
Organize your entire output by series, medium, period, or collection. Multiple images per piece, process documentation, exhibition history, and condition reports — all in one place. When a gallery or collector asks for your records, you're ready.
Publication-quality PDFs: insurance records, certificates of authenticity, appraisal documents, estate planning formats, donation receipts. The documentation that galleries, collectors, and institutions expect — generated from data you've already entered.
When a grant application asks for your artist statement, exhibition history, and work samples — they're ready. When a gallery wants to see your catalogue raisonné — it exists. &Kept builds the professional documentation that gets you into juried shows, residencies, and commissions.
