Combining Passion, Drive and Creativity into Beautiful Art

Sarinda Jones has been fascinated with art since she was a small girl. She was always looking for something different and instinctively knew that most people delight in finding unique items they’ve never seen anywhere else. To incorporate her love of art into a living, she established her first business offering nail artistry. In 2003, she was able to pursue her true passion and opened a business that specializes in creating and selling unique one-of-a-kind art pieces in the form of jewelry and glassware.

 

 

Reflective Art is located at 301 East 1700 South. Although Sarinda specializes in creating handmade jewelry, including necklaces and bracelets, and unique and decorative glass art, she is also skilled at creating custom glass pieces to meet customer requirements. Her jewelry pieces incorporate a distinctive mix of silver, brass and copper in the form of metal sheets, wire and rivets as well as semi-precious and synthetic stones. Functional glass art is available in the form of bowls, platters, dishes, backlit wall sconces and window hangings. Classes in both jewelry and glass art are also available. You can find Sarinda’s products in local galleries and boutiques such as the Patrick Moore Gallery, Whimsy and Red Butte Gardens. Her one-of-a-kind jewelry is also carried in select salons like NV Salon and Switch, as well as a boutique called The Urban Blossom in Texas.

Sarinda’s products can be found in local galleries and boutiques such as the Patrick Moore Gallery, Whimsy and Red Butte Gardens.

While Sarinda has spent years honing her experience, she has also learned from the best. She has attended the Pilchuck Glass Studio in Seattle, an internationally recognized glass school co-founded by Dale Chihuly.

 

“UMLF is the illuminating light from which
imagination emerges"

- Sarinda Jones

 

In May of 2004, a $10,000 Utah microenterprise loan enabled Reflective Art to purchase jewelry and glassware equipment and materials needed to meet the growing demand for her art pieces. Since that time, she has gone from selling little glass stars at the Farmer’s Market to doing one-of-a-kind commissioned pieces. In 2006, Sarinda also received the prestigious invitation to be one of four special guest artists at the Utah Arts Festival. 
You can reach Reflective Art Studio at (801) 835-8611. In the mean time, check out the web site at www.reflectiveartstudio.com and see some beautiful examples of Sarinda’s artistic brilliance. When you visit with Sarinda, ask her how a microenterprise loan allowed her to combine her talents and passion into a successful small business.
