Suggestions? (easy to maintain site for artist)

I have a buddy who is an artist and is opening a studio. He does several different types of art. He's real good at portraits on canvas and tattoing but does other things as well. He wants a site to represent his work.

Here's where the advice is needed...He really isn't too computer literate AT ALL but yet he'd like to write updates in his art world and upload pictures, post specials and sales, etc. So a hand made site from me is out of the question. One wrong press of a key or ftp overwrite and he can goof it up.

What do you guys suggest? I need something that is pretty versatile as far as me being able to design it the way I want. I need something that will allow him to post updates and stuff without the need for too much computer knowledge. I need something that won't allow him to harm anything.
