The second painting I did at the Nimrod Art weekend was a small paint and paper piece of a radish. Working with paper collage is so different from just painting. I am glad to get the opportunity to experience it with such a wonderful instructor.
Susannah Raine-Haddad was extremely generous in her teaching. You can learn more about her and her work on her website ZouZou’s Basement.
One of her wonderful collage pieces made the cover of Cloth-Paper-Scissors magazine earlier this year.
Thanks Susannah for sharing your skill and knowledge with us. It was great fun!
