McLarry Fine Art is set to exhibit recent landscape and still life paintings by Whitney Gardner. Based in the Mojave Desert for more than a decade, she has titled the show “Romance of Solitude” to underscore the desert’s role in her life as a “sanctuary for creativity and contemplation.”

“These artworks,” she says, “capture my experience in finding companionship with nature, with tales of mountains, skies, and nocturnal blooms in moonlight. They are also a testament to the profound connection between the human spirit and the untamed wilderness.”
Born and raised in Southern California, Gardner earned her B.F.A. at San Francisco’s California College of the Arts in 2010.
