Portland, OR -- (ReleaseWire) -- 05/07/2018 --Michael Parsons Fine Art has opened an exclusive exhibition featuring Portland artist Phyllis Trowbridge, on view until June 13th. The exhibition features over a dozen of Trowbridge's highly regarded plein air oil paintings together with a selection of drawings.

Trowbridge's paintings reflect the sights, sounds, and visceral experience of the natural Northwest. She works plein air all year round, often returning to the same location several times to create a final piece. Her imagery depicts the light and atmosphere of the outdoors and the transitory character of its changing moods and weather.

"In this exhibition Trowbridge pushes beyond the predictable into new ideas and perceptions to create fresh interpretations that express the beauty in nature. We are delighted to present this second exhibition of her work with the gallery," said Michael Parsons.

Opening reception: Saturday, May 12, 1:30-3:00 pm
