PLEIN AIR 2021


  • Edgewater Gallery at Middlebury Falls 1 Mill Street Middlebury, VT, 05753 United States (map)

Join us for Plein Air 2021, our second annual celebration of plein air painting. This year eight of Edgewater’s established painters will bring brushes and paints, canvases and palettes out of their studios, and into the great outdoors to immerse themselves in the landscape and create paintings that reflect the immediacy of each artist’s emotional response to and interpretation of, their chosen composition. The spontaneity and improvisation that are part of painting en plein air add a unique quality to the finished piece. Visitors will witness this exciting process as they explore the picturesque town of Middlebury, discovering artists, watching them work, engaging them in conversation, and having the opportunity to purchase new paintings off the easel.
