Welcome to Artistblue

Castaway Pearl one of my latest creations

Hi there, soon I will be closing down my store Island Art and Beads, although I loved what I was doing I really had to call it a day. Owning your own business takes up so much of your time that really does have an impact on not only your creativity but also your family. So now I will be working from home and creating Artistblue. I will be doing beading and painting lesson from home as well as  private lessons. Not to mention  my paintings,jewellery and greeting cards will be  for sale through my Etsy store. It is a new direction that will be a lot more family friendly and I'm sure my inspiration will soar without the stress. I am still in the process of adding more items to my Etsy store, it will take me a little time as I am still in the  process of closing down Island Art and Beads, so if you bear with me everything will get going soon. To infinity and beyond!!!!Ha Ha!
