We're delighted to kick-off another Jasper Galleries at Sound Bites Eatery. This month we're featuring Steven White . Join us for an Opening Reception during June’s First Thursday on Main.
White’s Bio
More and more these days, the creative world is seeing an emergence of artists creating positive spaces and shapes that, in turn, cleverly carve out shapes in negative space intentionally. Negative space is, quite simply, the space that surrounds the subject in an image or painting. Just as important as that subject itself, negative space helps to define the boundaries of positive space and brings balance to a composition. My most recent works are classic examples of negative space use. Providing a place for the eye to rest, the striking white space matched with the beautiful, eccentric black make it, what I hope to be, unforgettable executions of the technique. In art, it’s not always about what’s there, sometimes, it’s about what’s not there. With a passion for creative thinking, I aspire to create art that is conceptual, surreal, and fun in a unique way.
