First Thursday: Portland Experience

Powell's City of Books 1005 W Burnside Street, Portland, OR, United States

Philip Pittsenbarger is an architect and watercolor artist living in Portland, Oregon. Pittsenbarger’s paintings depict many of Portland’s buildings and neighborhoods, but, more importantly, aim to tell the story of life in this unique city. The reflections in the wet streets after a heavy rain, bike commuting through downtown, or running to catch the MAX train: these are the types of everyday experiences that are represented in his paintings.
