Stewart White’s watercolor and oil paintings are incredibly beautiful interpretations of the many places he has traveled. For those who have not traveled to Ireland, or Spain, or the Mediterranean coast Stewart’s paintings transport us there. Opening November 2, an exhibit of Stewart’s recent works titled “Off the Beaten Path: Paintings from My Travels” will be showing at South Street Art Gallery, Easton, MD. The exhibit will run through November 25.
“As an architect I am impressed with Stewart’s command of perspective and his convincing representation of buildings and public spaces. As a collector I covet his work. As an artist I am envious of Stewart’s magical transformation of blank canvas to finished image. And as a gallery, we are proud to represent such an artist!” says Alan Brock, owner of South Street Art Gallery.
Stewart White is an architectural illustrator and fine artist from Baltimore, Maryland. He is one of the rare plein air painters using the medium of watercolor. His background in architectural illustration adds to his skill set and his paintings reflect his knowledge of good design. Stewart’s paintings have the pleasing combination of good structure with a painterly style.
He studied at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn and after serving three years in the US Army he returned to graduate from UC Berkeley with a BFA. He works as an architectural illustrator and designer. His watercolors both in his architecture illustrations and in painting competitions have won him many awards. In June 2009 he was invited to teach a workshop in Paris on his techniques for architectural watercolors to an organization of architects. He continues to teach in Paris every other year.
Stewart exhibits his paintings in juried and gallery exhibitions throughout the US. He is the Grand Prize Winner of the prestigious Easton Plein Air Festival (2009) and PleinAir Magazine’s Grand Prize in the PleinAir Salon.
