"As an artist, I don't wish to remain the same - I want to grow and develop my skills to new heights. Nina Weiss' Landscape seminar supercharged my skills and forced me to try some things that stretched me.

It was a lovely 9 days that I spent in Ireland, thanks to you and your careful and thoughtful planning, and I wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed myself for the second time in your care!! I won't go into detail about all the great things about the Ireland Art Workshop because I think we covered much of them in conversation. But, the overall experience was a wonderful one, and I will take away excellent instruction on making art, warm memories and images of hospitable Ireland, and a new friend!!" ~Susan
"It was a wonderful experience in Ireland: thank you. You are an excellent teacher and made everything work just right." ~Anne
"I was impressed and grateful for the seamless execution of all the many details. Not only that, but each place, event, accommodation and meal was a real pleasure. It is something I will always remember. Thank you for organizing this trip! I had a wonderful time. Everything was great: the landscape, the instruction, the food, the accommodations, the transportation, the group. And everything went so smoothly thanks to you! This trip was a great learning experience for me in many ways. Thank you for everything that you have done!" ~Leslie
"Nothing but praise for the workshop!" ~Cindy
"The daily schedule provided a good structure as well as freedom to learn and explore on our own. ~Ann
"Just wanted to write a quick email to say thanks so much for the workshop in Ireland. Everything went over great and I haven't stop thinking about all the great experiences I had since I have gotten home. The group was a real pleasure to spend time with and I have walked away with a new appreciation of art and definitely plan to integrate it into my work..and you should definitely be commended for the organization of the trip...it was great!" ~Jeffrey
"It was one of the best experiences of my life!" ~Barbara
"The workshop truly exceeded my expectations. I felt I really grew as an artist while I was there." ~Kirk
"I want to thank you for a fabulous workshop. Not only are you a great teacher, but you were very patient with me as a beginner. I know I have a lot to learn, and feel lucky that I started off with you to give me a good foundation. Besides that, the trip was just FUN, don't you think? I loved Ireland and hope to go back someday. You picked some great spots for us to draw and be "tourists" in. Can't say what I liked the most...maybe Clifden? It's hard to single out one place because I loved certain things about each one. I am also convinced I will never have better seafood chowder (or service) than at Abbeyglen Castle Hotel. It would be worth going back just for that!" ~Ora
"The trip was a visual, artistic and culinary delight! I feel I learned a lot and am busy creating painting." ~Kate
"I still envision Italy as if it were yesterday... Such vivid scenes! Thank you for all the hard work you do to make the workshop so interesting, challenging and rewarding." ~Jenny
"I am really glad I went to this trip with you. Now I have many stories to tell my friends. I am glad to have the chance going to the field and especially have the chance to get some practice with my composition. For the art, for the friendship, for the location, for the accommodation, they are all great. Before the trip, it is a big expense to put down. But now, every penny worth it." ~Hai
"This trip was a great learning experience for me in many ways. Thank you for everything that you have done!" ~Turkan
