Saaren Taika® tuotteiden taustalta löytyy liekehtivää luovuutta sekä palava halu käsillä tekemiseen. Tuotteiden äiti, Johanna on taiteellista sukua sekä äitinsä, että isänsä puolelta ja onkin taiteillut niin kynän, pensselin, kameran kuin tietokoneenkin avulla. Johannan valokuvia on kutsuttu näyttelyihin aina Sveitsiin ja Lontooseen saakka, lisäksi amerikkalaisen countrytähden Waylon Jennigsin tyttärenpoika, Struggle Jennings on käyttänyt kuvia usein bloggauksissaan.
Koulutukseltaan hän on tuotekehittäjä, mutta ammatiltaan taivaanrannan maalari 😀
