ArtisticWill Studios, Glitter Art

ArtisticWill Studios was started when my mother had Alzheimers. She loved things that sparkle. A percentage of the proceeds are donated to Alzheimer Association and other charities.

You've never seen glitter used this way. I've mix loose glitter to a paint base and hand paint with a brush, creating beautiful sparkling art and keepsakes with multiple layers of glitter in a stained glass style. http://artisticwill.etsy.com

I belong to a non profit group called "The IndeIxhibit", a group of talented artists, crafters, photographers, sculptors, etc... wanting to enhance our brands by gifting to Hollywood celebrities. Big Hollywood names own my glitter art and has sent me personal emails "thanking me for my beautiful glitter art". Celebrities: Celine Dion (singer), Kelly Preston (John Travota wife), to Josh Sussman (Glee),and others. Do you want what the celebrities have, you can just visit my Etsy shop.

Please join my blog or mailing list on the subscription box. I have occasional give-a-ways of my glitter art, discounts and new creations. May gratitude and sparkle fill your day. Thanks for visiting.

Caregiving journal 8/21/10

I'm sorry if my journaling about my mom bores some of my visitors. When I write, it's part of me, it helps me and to gives me peace of mind. Thank you for all who have given there support during this difficult time. I try to stay positive, but I have to relearn how to relax and not be a full time caregiver. I've been on auto pilot for so long that I don't know how to relax. Just to watching TV or working on my art has been difficult, I feel as if I need to check on her constanly and to see if she needs assistance or needs anything. My kids have to remind me she no longer in the house. When I visit her at the nursing home, she keeps saying, I abandoned her and threw her away. It breaks my heart. It's hard, because she doesn't understand or can't remember what I told her on the last visits.
Finding new unique crafts, jewelry, art has helps me to relax. I'm an artists with a passion for beautiful creations and handmade. Thanks for visiting.

  1. Oh, my heart goes out to you. I experienced the same feelings when my mom was in "home hospice" and my dad was in a nursing home across town. I had 2 that needed me at the same time and I was worn out completely.
    God Bless,
    Chris
