ROBERT KENNETH WHITE – "SUMMER LIGHT"
⚜ Oil on canvas ⚜ Hand signed lower right ⚜ Frameless display
TONAL PORTRAIT OF FEMININITY IN SUN-WASHED SILENCE
In Summer Light, Robert Kenneth White presents a striking portrait of a standing woman rendered in warm, tonal hues. Her posture is poised yet enigmatic, with softened hands, downcast eyes, and flowing hair contrasting the luminosity of the surrounding space. The painting radiates a sense of emotional stillness and restrained power.
Executed in a reduced palette, this work continues White’s exploration of mood through minimalism and light. The blurred edge of realism gives the figure a spectral quality—intimate, contemplative, and timeless.

THE ARTIST:
Robert Kenneth White is a contemporary American realist who balances technical mastery with emotional depth. His figurative works—particularly those rendered in a tonal, minimalist style—explore stillness, vulnerability, and quiet intensity.
In Summer Light, White channels influences from Whistler and Thomas Dewing, embracing limited color, restrained form, and meditative presence. His portraits often feel timeless and reflective, drawing viewers into a shared emotional register rather than external narrative.
With works in private collections across the U.S., White is known for paintings that merge elegance, mood, and realism in equal measure.

Lady in Gold, Oil Painting
By Sherri Aldawood
Located in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
"I wanted to capture an air of mystery as my model Staceye gracefully turned around," shares artist Sherri Aldawood. Clad in golden garb, she twirls all while staring confidently ahead. With her background shrouded in shadows, she is cast in soft elegant light.
About the Artist
Sherri Aldawood didn't intend to always paint flowers, but over time her love of gardens started to permeate her art. She focuses on the light and color of the flowers on the canvas. Sherri prefers alla prima, working with wet layers of paint instead of letting them dry. She keeps the paint as wet as possible by using walnut and clove oil to extend the drying time.
