Beautiful new work from Rappahannock County artist Beautiful new work from Rappahannock County artist Elena Rousseau, a multidisciplinary artist from Appalachia. She describes her work as a materialized longing for union with the native self and calls on themes of vanitas, the sublimity of nature, and devotion to mystery to lead herself and her audience closer to this integration. Her work aims to alchemize estranged mediums into transcendent works of art which defy limits and border on the fantastic. For Rousseau, every creative act is a rebellious impulse that re-enchants the world. A maximalist at heart, she often explores multiple bodies of work simultaneously, from theatrical Neo-Baroque wall sculptures made of gesso, canvas, and 24 karat gold leaf to provocative, fully three-dimensional compositions made of minerals, bones, and Italian giltwood fragments to abstract and traditional oil paintings. She is also a poet, self-portrait photographer, student at The Florence Academy of Art, and mother of four children. See more of her work on our website at www.fallarttour.org, and on this year's Tour - November 1-2, 2025!
Fabulous work from Rappahannock County artist Rosa Fabulous work from Rappahannock County artist Rosabel Goodman, who says "My work, whether it is abstract or figurative, or somewhere in between, starts with a tree shape. I paint, I draw, I sculpt, I assemble, and sometimes I do all of the above. Since the end of last year I concentrate on making pieces that take me on a creative hike, without too much concern other than that the pieces must make me happily surprised." See more of her work on our website at www.fallarttour.org, and at Haley Fine Art in Sperryville, VA! This year marks our 20th annual tour, and we're thrilled to have so many talented artists on this year's Tour. An easy drive from Washington, DC, Fairfax and Richmond, VA and other Metro Area cities, this event is the perfect day or weekend trip. Won't you join us on November 1-2, 2025?
