Ralph White

Ralph White, born and raised in Southern California, is one of the premier creators of contemporary Fusionart in the Los Angeles area. Ralph has developed a distinctive style using strong and vibrant colors, and his art reflects a positive flow of energy. Ralph’s works exhibit outward expressions of feeling and celebrations of the inward journey of thoughtful introspection.

Ralph’s process is one of being at play; freedom and meditation without judgement. What becomes of the paint placed upon the canvas is up to his soul’s expression or emotion at the time. Ralph’s own style and technique interpreting the creative force within is what transpires into a painting.

A believer in the artist’s ability to create a dialog through each image, he is continually intrigued by the convergence of art and the observer. An executive business coach, Ralph White brings a lifetime of transformational thinking into his paintings. He has worked with thousands of clients over the years to re-direct their thinking to see possibilities and create change. Ralph brings this philosophy into his art, continually seeking to express the soul’s ability to evolve. His goal is to evoke a spark of creativity and imagination with his audience. When they see images or have an emotional response to his work, his intention is accomplished.

Ralph’s work has been recognized most recently by the American Art Awards (placed in several categories including a First Place in Abstract Expressionism), the Visual Arts Center of Punta Gorda, FL (NAE Judges Award), the International Society of Acrylic Painters (First Place award), Upstream People Gallery, Contemporary Art Gallery Online, and Art Addiction Online Gallery.

Ralph has exhibited professionally in Brooklyn, New York City, Las Vegas, Chicago, Michigan, Missouri, Florida, Honolulu, Laguna Beach, Los Angeles, and Washington, DC as well as in Beijing and Hong Kong.
