“over a storied 50-year career, Sabra Field has established herself as a great Vermont artist. Her works have made hers a unique and highly sought-after brand, one which beautifully depicts Vermont's landscape. Her prints, made by hand using woodblocks, are a premier example of how Vermonters harbor a deep commitment to creating and providing high-quality goods, made with passion. Her work has promoted Vermont, and I could not be more proud to recognize this acclaimed artist. Sabra enrolled at Middlebury College in 1953, where she was inspired by Piero della Francesca's painting ``The Flagellation of Christ.'' One of her instructors instilled a belief within her that, in her words, made art ``seem like a noble calling.'' Sabra has followed this calling over the last 50-years, creating beautiful works of art that portray Vermont's landscapes. Born in Oklahoma and raised in neighboring New York, Sabra believes that her professional career began when she moved to Vermont. She recalled in a Vermont Digger article that ``Vermont was beautiful and Vermonters unpretentious, generous, and understood `home occupation.' I was free to be me.'' This environment made Vermont an ideal work and home location for Sabra. Sabra's achievements are impressive. Her work has been featured on the cover of Vermont Life magazine. It is showcased in a stained glass window at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in New Hampshire. It has been printed on 250,000 UNICEF Cards.…”
