Pittsburgh's skyline is so familiar to anyone who lives here, especially PPG Tower with its four modern glass spires at the corners, and you can also see the fountain at The Point, pale against the darker trees of Point State Park behind it, a little bit of Heinz Field and a tugboat plying its way down the still river creating just a bit of a wake, all seen through and around the arch of the West End Bridge.
I created this work for an exhibit I had in 2006 entitled "100 West Busway", featuring 125 thumbnail photos of Pittsburgh taken through the bus window on the round-trip journey from Carnegie and back on the 100 West Busway route, running from the south hills into downtown Pittsburgh, through the east end and Oakland and all the colleges and research centers, back into downtown and back to the suburbs.
From the 125 thumbnails I created a dozen works, each in a different medium, all framed with black wood frames and white mats. This is one of those pieces, and is actually one of the originals from the show.
This painting is 8" x 11" in a 14" x 17" raised-profile 1.25" matte-finish black frame with a 3" white mat, ready for hanging.
