One of the most popular stops of the Camano Island Studio Tour, Betty’s beautiful garden and artwork is treasured. We are thrilled to have Betty with us for a second year, even though we know that this means that her fans won’t be able to enjoy her master work as a gardener. We know that you will enjoy her original art, cards and prints!
Amanda Pearson
Amanda can trace her lineage back to Fanny Y. Cory, the great grandmother of her dad. But her intricate art style that weaves fabric and paper into wonderful artworks is her own. This will be Amanda’s third time with us on the Studio Tour. Her art is always a popular item in the many options of originals and prints at affordable prices. And people love to see her doing her art at her station.
