About the Item

ROBERT KENNETH WHITE – "GIRL WITH RED HAIR" Oil on Canvas ⚜ Hand Signed Lower Right ⚜ Frameless Display A PORTRAIT STUDY OF STRENGTH AND INTROSPECTION In this emotionally charged portrait, Robert Kenneth White captures a young girl with long red hair, sunlit freckles, and a piercing gaze—imbuing the canvas with strength, contemplation, and mystery. The braided strand offset against the loose texture of her hair introduces visual rhythm, while her white garment and neutral background emphasize the immediacy of her expression. Completed in 2016, the work showcases White’s remarkable ability to render psychological nuance in human features. The artist’s own reflection on this painting—"When I see a captivating face I wonder if I would be able to catch that essence…"—frames it as a deeply personal pursuit of presence and authenticity.

Deeply influenced by the traditions of John Singer Sargent, Claude Monet, and Norman Rockwell, White’s work reflects both technical precision and emotional resonance. White paints from direct observation, saying, “I don’t paint what’s inside me—I paint what I see outside of me.” His collectors include institutions like Fairmont Hotels and the Four Seasons, as well as private clients such as Steven Spielberg, Harrison Ford, and Michael Douglas. White’s paintings are celebrated for their immersive atmosphere, rich light, and bold use of color—distinctly American in tone, yet universally admired.
