Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
This painting was inspired by many people and events. I was first inspired by my Mother’s love of art. She shared that passion with my brother and me. My mother, Dorothy Bieber Nomberg, was a self-taught artist. She would bring art books home for my brother, Joel, and me to see the artist that she was fond of. My second inspiration was her favorite artist Toulouse Letrec. In our home was a wonderful poster of Letrec’s “Avril”, (April in French) with reds, blacks, whites and yellows. The poster depicted a Cabaret dancer. Understanding now - and looking back - it had a huge impact on me because today most of my works are done in these exact colors. Also growing up my family was dog lovers. Cats were never an option - until much later in life. As we were much older, and had families of our own, a cat took up residence at my parent’s home. The cat would not leave and so they eventually brought her in to care for her and feed her. Shortly thereafter they realized she was pregnant! There - in lies the love and bonding of le chat, (the cat), after which they continued to love and take care of four felines in their later years. Dogs, art, golf and cats were very important in their daily living. Having inherited these loves, could I have any better legacy than this? I think not!

At a ceremony in Florence, Italy, Susan Nomberg McCollough, was honored as 2017’s “Artist of the Year” and one of the “Top 60 Contemporary Masters” by the world’s most widely circulated art publication – Art Tour International. She was born in Bronx, New York and lived in Dothan, Alabama from the age of six until graduation from Dothan High School. McCollough has produced numerous paintings, many on commission, and she has exhibited in many solo and group exhibitions across four continents. The University of Alabama commissioned her to create a painting to honor her late professor and life-long mentor, Al Sella. The painting is an impressionistic portrait of the iconic artist and his emblematic bicycle. This large portrait now hangs in the art building, Clark Hall, and it is slated to do so in perpetuity. Susan served on the Art Committee at the United States Sports Academy for more than 10 years. The USSA attracts and honors artists from around the world and is solely responsible for selecting featured artist for the Olympics. She now serves not only on the committee as Artist Emeritus but also as Trustee Emeritus. She is a member of the Women's Art World organization in Marrakech, Morocco. The WAW's mission is to bring together and promote Women's art in a world of different cultures, languages, and art. Today, there are 20 countries and 35 artists represented in Women's Art World. Susan is also a member of ICAF (International Culture and Arts Federation) in Seoul, South Korea; NOMA (New Orleans Museum of Art) in New Orleans, Louisiana (USA); BMOA (Birmingham Museum of Art) in Birmingham, Alabama (USA); MMofA (Mobile Museum of Art) in Mobile, Alabama (USA); Metropolitan Museum of Las Vegas in Las Vegas, Nevada (USA); MOMA (Museum of Modern Art) New York City, New York (USA), MMOA (Metropolitan Museum of Art) in New York City, New York (USA) and DMA (Dallas Museum of Art) Dallas, Texas (USA). McCollough paints primarily on large canvases, sometimes working on as many as three or four paintings at a time. Her works are Abstract Expressionism with a freedom of movement and vibrant, or sometimes, monochromatic colors. She sculpts using water-based clay as well as paints in oils and acrylics, as well as in charcoal and ink, pastels, water-colors, and mixed media. Susan N.
