SHORT BIOGRAPHY

Bob White has exhibited widely in the UK, Europe and Japan where he also has work in private and public collections. He has also been involved extensively in art education: as a teacher from secondary to post graduate levels, as an examiner and as an Inspector of Schools, he is the co-author of several textbooks. He is represented in the UK by the Beardsmore Gallery London and in Japan by GalleryGallery Kyoto.

Current work develops the relationship of line and form through the making process, that is the line delineates the form, which is expressed through colour washes into the support (calico). The imagery becomes part of the surface and evolves through it and on it as a result of overpainting, drawing and washing. The washing has an integrating function, joining the paint, calico and line within the surface.
