Welcome to a little bit of joy on the web: Joie de Vie Art & Word (home of Bella Stewart Designs). My name is Isabella Stewart, but you can call me Bella. I am an artist, and my main medium is acrylic paint. When I created Joie de Vie Art & Word, I wanted to provide artful designs that could bring a smile. Not everyone could afford or had a place to hang a painting, so I started with a line of cards dubbed “Head in the Clouds Cards”. After I had painted, photographed and printed seven cards, I created this little e-shop. I intended to have a gallery page with my paintings, and I really still do so stay tuned. The collection of cards has grown and been joined with a variety of designs for you, your home, or someone you love, each beginning with an original painted work.

Now you know. Thanks for stopping by. Please take a look around, maybe you’ll find a joyful little something. Stay in touch. Feel free to reach out with any questions, I do strive for a timely response.
