So....
Imagine yourself surrounded by nature's beauty at the ocean' edge
with a views of majestic Mount Baker rising in the distance
while nestled in a spectacular, yet cozy timber "cottage".
Imagine being with a group of women in sacred sisterhood for a weekend
of self discovery, creative play and no commitments other than to
fully experience your joyfilled goddess self.
Imagine journeying to inner places no one but you can experience and fully
express as a creative being...in full sacred goddesshood!
Imagine great food, stunning views, natural surroundings, private sanctuary,
painting and playing, bonding and new friendships, letting your hair down
and being free to self express your creative fire!

the experience

This is an invitation to join me in an intimate gathering of women to explore, embrace and celebrate the beauty of your own Inner Goddess through creative play.
Absolutely no painting experience is required!
You will be gently guided in a step by step method of Intentional Creativity
resulting in a 16" x 20" acrylic painting of your Goddess Archetypal Self.
Goddess: “A female being of supernatural powers or attributes, believed in and worshiped by a people”
“ A female being believed to be the source of life and being and worshiped as the principal deity..” (definition excerpts from The Free Dictionary)
Sometimes as women we get lost in the day to day juggling of our lives and sometimes we forget who we are. Sometimes we are “labeled” by others and we begin to believe we are the personification of that “label” even if it isn't true... Because only we know who we truly are!
There is a beautiful, sacred wisdom that lies beneath all the labels... lies beyond the duties and the chores and the multitasking actions we perform as loving, nurturing, sensual beings. Each and every one of us are a divine presence that carry the creative, feminine essence of the Creator...”the source of life”...Now how powerfilled is that!
There is an old paradigm belief that to achieve or to manifest we must strive, push & try as hard as we can. The way of the feminine, the way of the goddess is not about force. It is about inviting and receiving from the understanding we are already abundant. It is a magnetic energy. We are the way of the creator, infinite & full of possibility. Each of us is unique and have our own special gifts to share in our own way. Let's reawaken and embrace our core true essence that lies within each of us... These are the superpowers of our own Inner Goddess Self! And they are the brilliant “Golden Essence” of our true spirit.
The fall season is a time of abundance and gratitude. This is when we celebrate the harvest and the bounty it has provided us for the long, dark winter months ahead. This October retreat is a perfect opportunity to focus on our own bountiful self...the natural gifts and talents that make us who we are. These are the aspects of our divinity that connect us to our True Goddess Glory! So through intention & exploration we will tap into our creative spirit to “harvest”, share & celebrate our own Goddess self while indulging in safe sacred circle, meditation, visioning, creativity, sisterhood and of course sumptuous food.
You will leave with a 16 x 20 painting of your Goddess Archetype, an empowered sense of your inner Goddess self and a special connection with new Goddess friends.
The universe supports us when we step into our true power through spiritual connection. As women our true power lies within our feminine creator essence self expressed through our individual gifts. I truly honour each and every woman that chooses to gift herself the space and time to join this Goddess Gathering in sacred sisterhood. Let us take the time to be with each other, caring for ourselves in celebration of the “Goddess of the Golden Harvest.”
In Joy and Blessings of the Goddess In You!

artist & host:
Sharron Cuthbertson
Visionary Intuitive Artist
Certified Color of Woman Intentional Creativity Teacher and Guide
Graphic Designer and Sign Crafter for 27 years
Matrix Energetics Certified Practitioner
Certified Voice for Love Practitioner & Teacher
Certified Dowser Healer, Visionary Artist, Teacher & Guide
As long as I can remember I have been a heart centered creative force in the world, being blessed with a natural gift for artistic expression. As such, I have been led down many paths, directing me how I could and would lead my life.
My passions are ignited by a deep love for the natural world with reverence and gratitude for the beauty of life in all it's forms. There is also within me an endless quest for truth and the great unfolding mysteries of the universe.
Focusing on my creativity with heart spirit connection and awareness, allows my art to come forth intuitively through visionary and energetic patterns and frequencies. By fusing images and symbols onto the canvas and paper there is an emerging vibrancy and healing energy contained within to be experienced by the viewer.
Meanwhile through photography, my intention is to capture the splendor, wonder and magic I see and feel when experiencing life on this beautiful planet and bring awareness to our interconnectedness to our great mother and each other. My hope is that you will experience your own inner beauty, wonder and magic when witnessing my creative expressions.
With the understanding that we are all divine creative beings, my intention is to inspire others through creative playshops, retreats and gatherings. As a Visionary Artist and Certified Colour of Woman Teacher, I will lead you into the world of Intentional Creativity to explore your inner wisdom of sacred connection and expression of your creative heart.
I joyfully invite you to shine your own light into the world!

live music
Zan Callison
Zan has a voice that was perfectly made for the healing arts.
As you are taken on a personal soul journey through her musical offerings, you may find tears rolling down your cheeks, belly laughs roaring from within, or be left in a moment of contemplative silence.
With a passion for justice and a love of Mother Earth, Zan touches on topics which can be emotionally evocative for the listener as she sings her soul songs alive. Her unique voice paired with her mix of love, life lessons and learned hurts of the world are a combination that has kept her audiences asking for “one more”…or maybe three.
movement & meditation
Amy Bjorndahl
You will be guided through gentle movements, breath work and meditations to awaken the Body, Inner Goddess and Spirit. Using these techniques, we will ground, focus and create a state for enhanced creativity.
Amy has been meditating since 2004 through Training in Power Academy of Healing and Meditation and leading meditations since 2014
She teaches a meditation course on how to shield, ground, heal yourself, do an energy healing, and tools of manifestation. It is based on metaphysics principles and gives you the tools to go deeper into yourself and to listen to your Spirit voice.
Amy Bjorn was born a creative spirit. The Love of texture and colour can be seen in her artwork. She uses many different materials and mediums to create dimensional art while in a meditative state, infusing energy that can be felt when experiencing the art pieces.
