“BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT I DO” A SHOW BY MALLORY WHITE

Opening reception: Saturday, August 14th @ 5 - 7pm

Mallory has been a seasonal resident, art student and painter in Provincetown for
25 years.  She also spent 45 years in Santa Fe New Mexico, another incredible art
colony with a great and long tradition of diversity. “Because That’s What I Do” is
eclectic and ranges from representational to somewhat abstract.  

This show includes still lifes, (with a select group of her Pear Series), , florals in somewhat non-traditional ways, birds, landscapes, and more. The work is very direct and straightforward and is characterized by clean and clear colors. While the subject matter is varied, the look of the paintings ties together.    She is a longtime member of PAAM, Truro Center for Fine Arts and the New Mexico Fine Arts Museum.    

The studio in Provincetown that she rented for many years was “repurposed” near the end of 2019.  “The Commons came to my rescue and after applying, I was accepted to become a resident artist in one of their Art & Design Studios.  I’ve been able to continue painting and studying thanks to them.” “ I’ve been wearing two hats for many years – one as a painter and the other as an Investment Advisor and co-owner of White & Luff Financial in New Mexico. The painter hat is the one that I dream of at night.”
