Elizabeth White

Elizabeth White grew up in Northern Illinois, and lived on the East Coast for twenty years before moving to Ojai in 1993. She studied at the Art Institute in Chicago and received a degree in studio art from Stanford University. During her time at Stanford, she studied with Frank Lobdell and Nathan Oliveira.

White works primarily with pastels. She considers herself to be a landscape artist, but not a typical landscape artist. While many such artists like to stand back to get the grand picture, she often zooms in to create what she tends to think of as a landscape portrait.
