The University of Portland will host an exhibit by artist Jeff White titled “Seasonal Gifts” from March 18 through April 11. The exhibit will be in the Buckley Center Art Gallery and is free and open to the public.
The exhibit features paintings that reflect White’s most memorable and moving experiences with nature. Created with oil and pastels, his inspiration comes from the Columbia Gorge and Northwest coastal regions, mountains, and rivers.
White is a fine artist from Portland known for his dramatic and colorful skyscapes and depictions of the beautiful Northwest landscapes. His art is collected from around the world by many, including Clint and Dina Eastwood, Schnitzer Steel, and Grammy award-winner Joanna Newsom. When not painting, Jeff enjoys cooking, fishing, traveling and spending time with his wife and five children.
