Pittock Mansion (plein air) Print

The historic Pittock Mansion in Portland, OR is a favorite tourist destination. It has a beautiful view overlooking the city, which is what led me to the location for plein air. But the building itself was a beautiful sight with the light upon it. I wanted to capture light on the architecture without the fussiness of rendering every window and door. Yet, true to my vision, I insisted that my painting remain wholly recognizable for the importance of this building. Unframed. If you would like to purchase this work framed, please contact me through Saatchi Curatorial Team at curator@saatchiart.com for availability and pricing. Elo Wobig is an award winning landscape painter whose work is characterized by vivid color and calligraphic brush strokes of complex scenes. Most of her paintings originate en plein air from locations across the Pacific NW. Her primary goal is to capture distinct features so that the audience might recognize the time and place. In doing so, she invites the viewer to envision the beauty she finds in ordinary places. She employs a full palette of color and textures in her oil paintings. Most recently, her award winning work has garnered national recognition, at the American Impressionist Society Annual Juried Show 2019 held at the prestigious Salmagundi Club.. She is honored to have her painting displayed in the permanent collection at the Museum of the Oregon Territory.
