Henry White
Rolling hills and wide-open spaces are vistas experienced by Henry White every day in the local landscapes of the American West Coast. The mountainous terrain proves ideal for naturally occurring compositions of foggy hilltops and valleys. "I want to open a window to these places so that a viewer may see these glorious forms and colors and open a door so they can imagine themselves in this enchanted real world." White studied at the California College of Arts and Crafts and has exhibited his work throughout northern California. |

Eleni Traganas
