Second Saturdays Art Opening @ Art on the Trax with Elizabeth Sauder

“Barns and Carnivals: Plein Air Paintings by Elizabeth Sauder”

Second Saturday at Art on the Trax (a gallery at Creative Framing & The Art Box in Crozet, Virginia):

Art on the Trax will “Barns and Carnivals: Plein Air Paintings” by Elizabeth Sauder during the month of March, with a Second Saturday Artist Reception on March 14^th.

Plein air painter, Elizabeth Sauder, spends most days painting.  To explore and become intimate with a place, Sauder ventures out to each painting site at various times of day and in various weather conditions.  Through painting, she finds the fundamental characteristics, the essence, of the land she calls home.  In the summer, Sauder packs up her camper van and spends her days and nights chasing rural carnivals and painting in the midst of what she calls “colorful chaos, happy crowds, and the smell of popcorn and cotton candy”.  We are so excited to be showing Sauder’s work this March.

Join us for our Second Saturday Opening Reception on March 14^th.  This reception is part of Crozet’s Second Saturday events and runs from 4:00 to 6:00 pm.  We’ll be serving up The Art Box’s famous ice cream sundaes topped with fruit from local orchards.
