About Irene Ruby

Hi, I'm Irene Ruby, a full-time artist and the founder of Makings and Musings. I believe that art is a powerful way to express yourself, connect with others, and create a sense of purpose. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of teaching and inspiring thousands of people to embrace their creativity, from beginners to experienced artists.

In addition to my passion for teaching, I’ve worked on a variety of projects, including collaborations with charities, healthcare organisations, and local communities. I also offer online courses to help people from all walks of life make art from home, including those with reduced mobility.

I created this guide because I want to help you take the next step in your artistic journey and share your work with a wider audience. Whether you're just starting out or looking to take your art business to the next level, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
