      Excellent experience! Joan Fullerton’s workshop was dynamic and she is a sensitive loving person to be with. The food was delicious, the facilities luxurious and comfortable. The staff and owners very courteous and efficient. Beyond any expectation in every detail. Thank you so much! I would do it again.

      A great time. Kristy is such a gentle teacher and guiding light. She knows so many tricks and techniques! The Inn was wonderful -- food, ambience, location, owner! And we were blessed with perfect fall weather. A wonderful workshop and week!

      This was an interactive art retreat with colored pencil artist and author Kristy Kutch. We learned many techniques and new uses for colored pencils. We also explored the use of different papers. It was one of the best art retreats I have attended.

      What an enjoyable few days. Michael is a talented, generous painter and teacher. Loved the accommodations and food. Slept great every night.

      This was my first experience with a watercolor workshop. It was everything I hoped for.... full days of painting in a beautiful location with generous and accommodating hospitality. Michael is an excellent instructor who offers patience and encouragement to students of every skill level. I hope to take another workshop with him in the future.

      I am super happy that your first experience at a workshop/retreat was a positive one. I am aiming to make our workshops and retreats the ones to attend. I hope you can return in the future. Hopefully we will have our greenhouse and lap pool installed!!!
