Portrait artist Justin White, Justin White, uses oil painting as a way to celebrate the people who have left an impression on his life and the individuality he sees in each subject.
A William & Mary graduate in Art and English, Justin returned to painting with renewed focus in 2023. His work has since appeared in solo and group exhibitions across Virginia, including a recent selection for the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Artโs Made in VA exhibition.

Justinโs work is currently on view throughout The Suffolk Center galleries as part of A Short Story by Intalek.
See the exhibition through November 6.
