Getting to know SarasinArt (Artfire shop) My name for my store is my othername for....me! I was involved in a reenactment group for about 10 years, andSarasin was the personna name I used for that, and she was an artisticperson. And the work Sarasin is tied in with my gypsie heritage, wayback. I believe I got my artisticability from both parents. My mother is a talented artist who has not done anyartwork as she got on in years. My father was a woodworker who could makegorgeous furniture and cabinets. I love jewelry componentsthat are pure representations of other cultures; for instance, I do a lotof work with African Trade beads and beads from Tibet and the Orient.
