We are thrilled to offer a unique opportunity to own a piece of original art while supporting the Nurturing Spirit Retreat at Samish Island (February 27–March 1).

Artist Kathy Nutt, our special guest for the weekend, has generously donated an original work to ensure these meaningful gatherings continue to thrive. Kathy is a lifelong explorer of creativity and a fine artist originally from Canada, currently living in Texas. She finds inspiration in the beauty of nature as well as imagination, the mystical, and fantasy themes. As a multimedia artist she uses different styles and materials including drawing with inks working in acrylics, coloured pencils, printmaking and photography.

A gallery of her prolific visual artworks can be found online at: katherine-nutt.pixels.com
