Meet our first couple in the Sanctuary Arts Festival!
Mark and Sandi Woods made the move from California to Mississippi after setting out on a three-month RV adventure to find the place they would call home. During their travels, they unexpectedly discovered Abbeville, Mississippi, and immediately fell in love with its peaceful rural setting, while the nearby town of Oxford captured their hearts with its Southern charm and vibrant community.
What began as a cross-country search became a new chapter in Mississippi, where the natural beauty, slower pace of life, and rich culture continue to inspire their artwork. Today, their creative work reflects the landscapes, spirit, and timeless character of the place they are proud to call their forever home.

Meet R.J. - one of our 2026 Sanctuary Artists!
R.J. Lee a native of Natchez, Mississippi, and a graduate of Sewanee (The University of the South) in English and Creative Writing, this novelist and acrylic artist spent the first 22 years of his life in Natchez, where he developed a great admiration for architecture and natural beauty. He has spent the last 21 years living in Oxford, Mississippi, the vibrant community where the majority of his 18 novels were written and published. Over the years, his creative work has also been featured in various art exhibits at the Powerhouse, City Grocery, and other local venues.
While trained in oil on canvas, his current medium of choice is acrylic on framed corkboard, an acid-free substrate. His subject matter remains eclectic, ranging from landscapes and animals to various weather formations and unexpected juxtapositions of objects. Today, his diverse artwork and prolific writing continue to reflect the landscapes, spirit, and timeless character of the Mississippi places that have shaped his life.

Meet Chelsea! Her art will be featured in the Sanctusrty Arts Festival on August 1st in Oxford. Chelsey grew up in Pascagoula, Mississippi, where the Gulf Coast became the foundation of both his childhood and her work. Some of her earliest memories are of exploring the barrier islands and collecting oyster shells, driftwood, and other treasures that would later inspire her art. Today, she turns those same coastal materials into sculptures that reflect the place and experiences that shaped her.
