ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR

Angela White is a fine artist who is inspired by physical, spiritual, and emotional memories that create the visual depth and density of her work.  Abstracts and seascapes compose the majority of her compositions.  Natural and sensual materials such as oils and encaustic paint allow the blending of edges to create visual depth. Angela’s work is featured in both corporate and private collections.  In the past 20 years, Angela has exhibited oil, encaustic, and mixed media paintings extensively in juried shows across the DC metropolitan area as well as in New York and the West Coast.  She holds two B.A. degrees and an M.A. degree from the University of Maryland.
