By permission of the artist, The Cyber Art Show is pleased to feature two 12-piece Exhibitions of works by American landscape artist Elizabeth Pollie (born 1958 in St. Louis, Missouri).

 

Elizabeth Pollie’s exposure to the arts came at an early age. Taken to museums, enrolled in classes by her parents and influenced by her father’s love and practice of art and architecture, she was always clear about her path in life. “Working within the field of visual arts never seemed like a choice, but rather a place of true belonging.” She enrolled in college art classes while still in high school and went on to receive an education at a formal Art School. She earned her B.F.A. at The College For Creative Studies where she later taught.

 

Pollie worked as a freelance illustrator and had her illustrations published in three Communication Arts Illustration Annuals as well as Booth Clibborn’s American Illustration. She left the field of editorial illustration to pursue a full-time painting career.

Harboring a deep love of travel and art history, Elizabeth has combined her travels with her painting practice. The images that she creates are imbued with a sense of poetry, mood and depth.   

 

Elizabeth's paintings reside in both public and private collections here and abroad and have received much national recognition. She is a Signature Member of the Oil Painters Of America.

 

Elizabeth has found a deep sense of place within the rekindled practice of representational painting in America.  Of this movement Pollie reflects, “It is celebration, an homage and in many ways a joyous homecoming. I am pleased to be a part of it."
