Artisit Feature

At Sapphire Center we believe that community is the best support a small business owner can have, so we are proud to carry local artist products. The artist we would like to feature this month is Joodii. Joodii is a local painter, and one of our employees as well! She has been with us for year, and we couldn't be more excited for her work to be in our shop! Along with bigger paintings, Joodii also paints what she calls "Smiling Rocks"; and has spooky ones out now for Halloween. She hand paints each rock, so no two are a like, and she creates a face from the energy that she gets from the stone. All stones are collected by Joodii on her walks on the Oregon Coast!
