I’m back at Nimrod for a weekend of art. This place is magical in that there are so many beautiful sights to paint plus the minute you drive through the gate your troubles and worries melt away. Everyone is here to learn and create. The atmosphere is terrific. Today we’ll be working with Fielding Archer. Can’t wait to try something new. Enjoy these scenes from around Nimrod and I’ll share more tomorrow….

This tree swing looked so inviting. I took this photo at Nimrod last year when I attended an art workshop there. Here you can see the painting along with the reference photo.

Radish
Paper and Acrylic, 8″ x 8″
Susannah Raine-Haddad’s magazine cover
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!
