Danny White

My name is Danny White and I have been entertaining with art for as long as I can remember. In 2008 I received my BFA Degree from Bowling Green State University in Ohio. Painting and drawing had always been my primary focuses until 2007 when I first discovered glass. I was able to develop a relationship with the material by approaching it much as I would a painting. From then on, I have focused my energy on creating work that bridges the gap between the different mediums using a cohesive aesthetic. I love traveling to new places and meeting new people. Through this I create what I experience and enjoy telling the story.

Objective

To obtain a position in an artistic field that allows for success through expressing myself creatively and socially in an inspirational environment.
