“Painting allows me to explore land, city or the figure — through a modern lens.  While painting outdoors or in the studio, I enter a space of design, color and texture that continues right through to the finished work.”

Karen White was born in Southern California and moved to Palo Alto in the early 1960s, when Santa Clara Valley was agricultural. Apricot orchards, walnut groves, farms and green hills were hallmarks of the Bay Area.  Her oil paintings are sought after for their modern style, with strong design, confident brush strokes and vibrant color.  Her work is in collections across North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific.

She has studied at the Pacific Art League, Palo Alto Art Center, Triton Museum and the California Academy of Painters. She continues to study with noted artists including Ray Mendieta, Brian Blood, Kim English, Terry Miura, Peggy Kroll Roberts, Randall Sexton; studied with the late Canadian artist Robert Genn and studied for years in the East Bay with the late Van Waldron.
