Sparkling Waters Studios is the creative home of artist Carolyn Santos. Originally rooted in glass art, the studio began with a love for color, light, texture, and the sparkle that comes from creating something by hand.
Over time, my creative practice has grown beyond glass into watercolor, digital art prints, paper goods, and junk journal kits. Rather than starting over, I’m allowing Sparkling Waters Studios to grow with me — becoming a mixed-media studio where different materials can live together under one creative story.
Whether I’m painting, designing printable art, creating journal pieces, or working with glass, the heart of my work remains the same: colorful, joyful, handmade-feeling art with a touch of whimsy. My pieces are inspired by creativity, nature, storytelling, vintage charm, and the quiet magic found in everyday moments.
Sparkling Waters Studios is a place for art that feels personal, expressive, and full of light — made for collectors, makers, journalers, and anyone who believes beauty can be found in both the polished and imperfect.
Thank you for being here as this studio continues to grow, shift, and sparkle in new ways.
