Link to shopping cart yields miniature icon

Original Size ArtCart - Digital Art

When I first built my website, the shopping cart stayed open as a separate window - so it didn’t seem necessary to have a link to it in any fashion. When someone bought - there it was.

Recently, I was on a site and noticed a little icon for a shopping cart - nothing special, but for some reason it made an impression. And when I checked how my shopping cart works now, I realized  I needed to have a link. Gone are the days of a separate window.

So I had a little fun creating this miniature cart and throwing some art inside. I actually took some miniature sections of some of my work and put it in the cart.  

But at the size on the website… no one would ever know.  But that is why I am including the original size here. Plus I think the size of the original work is interesting.

I have found that something too big - won’t look good small and something too small won’t look good big. Though there is incredible flexibility within the digital art medium, it is not without its limits.

And that is probably good.
