Custom Squarespace Website for Artist and E-commerce Storefront
Client: Amantha Tsaros
Project Type: Custom Squarespace Website + E-commerce Setup + Shopify Migration
Industry: Fine Art / E-commerce
A Bright, Bold Digital Home for a Fine Artist
Amantha Tsaros is an artist who chooses to paint the light in a dark world. Her artwork radiates color, joy, and movement and she wanted her online storefront to do the same.
Before working with Carbon & Clay, Amantha was using Shopify to manage her online store. While the platform worked for sales, it didn’t feel easy to customize or maintain. She found herself spending more time wrestling with her website than creating art.
That’s when she decided to make the switch to Squarespace.
What We Created Together
Amantha wanted a digital space that felt as bold and beautiful as her art — a site that balanced creativity with control. Our goal was to give her an online storefront that looked gallery-worthy while being simple enough for her to update herself.
Here’s what we focused on together:
Shopify to Squarespace Migration — Seamlessly transferred her full e-commerce shop, including products, collections, and imagery, into Squarespace for easier management and improved creative flexibility.
Custom Squarespace Website Design — Created a vibrant yet clean design that let her artwork shine against intentional white space, giving every page a curated, gallery-like feel.
E-commerce Optimization — Configured her online store for both physical and digital art products, set up inventory systems, and streamlined the checkout process.
Brand Integration — Incorporated Amantha’s existing color palette and brand elements in a way that amplified her bold, artistic aesthetic.
Shop Page & Gallery Customization — Designed product and collection layouts that felt immersive and intuitive for her buyers.
Training & Handoff — Provided a custom walkthrough and video tutorials so Amantha could confidently add new artwork, edit content, and manage orders independently.
The result: a vibrant, artist-led online home that showcases Amantha’s creativity, simplifies her sales process, and gives her full freedom to grow her business her way.
The Artist’s Experience
“I just want to let you know how happy I am with my site. Your customizations have made my life so much easier. I love not having to worry about my site! I no longer have to tweak or adjust or fret over if it looks okay — it looks great!! Thank you so much!”
And when asked about switching platforms, she said:
“Squarespace is so much easier to work with! I can customize every part of my website and easily make it look just like I want it to — but the very best part is that it’s easy to work with. I thought Shopify would be so great for selling products, but it was so much harder to upload items and manage my site that I ended up avoiding it. I’m glad I’m using Squarespace now — it’s fun to work with, and I’m actually happy to send people to my new site.”
The Result
Amantha’s new website is a true reflection of her art, reflecting a brand that is joyful, bold, and full of color. Her e-commerce store is now intuitive to manage, allowing her to focus on creating rather than troubleshooting tech.
By moving to Squarespace, Amantha now has:
Full creative control over her brand presentation.
A simplified e-commerce system that makes adding new artwork effortless.
A website she feels proud to share — and confident maintaining herself.
