At last, I have something other than an Oktoberfest painting to show you! Last week I visited Künstlerdorf Neumarkt an der Raab, an artists’ colony in a quiet part of southeastern Austria. The place itself is absolutely adorable. It consists of a small cluster of historic buildings, several of which have thatched roofs. Inside you’ll find studios, exhibition spaces, and even bedrooms that visitors can rent during their stay. Artists teach a variety of week-long workshops here during the summer months.
