Elements to seek outside

“Light & Breezy” (oil on cradled panel), by New England painter Janis Sanders, at Alpers Fine Art, Rockport, Mass.

He says:

“Salt air, salt spray, sweet smell of summer grass, verdant marsh, an old house at the water’s edge, wind in your hair, sun on your face.

“These elements draw me outdoors, to the grassy dunes of Truro, the calm marshes of the North Shore, to the rugged cliffs of Maine.”
