TODDWHITE
ORIGINAL PAINTINGS
Todd White’s stylish, avant-garde figurative work
represents a highly personal take on the machinations
of the human mind. His unerring eye recreates every
nuance of body language and expressions - a sidelong
glance, a come-hither stare – and draws us inexorably
into his enticing and witty world.
California’s
artist to
the stars
Amongst his countless achievements Todd is the artist
of choice for the world’s most high profile showbiz
events and a list of his celebrity collectors (Abbey
Clancey, Sharon Stone, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Sylvester
Stallone, Mary J. Blige, Barry Sonnenfeld) reads like a
Who’s Who of Hollywood and beyond. His appointment
as Official Artist to the GRAMMY® Awards, and Warner
Bros’ invitation to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of ‘The
Wizard of Oz’ on canvas have cemented his position as
the world’s most glamorous artist.
Gentlemen Jacks
and Top Tottys
A special painting for me since I spent 2
weeks there studying the British people
and the flow of life, I went through many
drawings before coming up with this final,
The first painting I have ever done as an
exclusive for the UK. The frame was also
a factor from the conception well, while
there I took hundreds of photos of British
pubs, I wanted the framing to feel like
the heavy wood architecture of the bar
and feel like home. I feel like all 6 sticks
of framing accomplished my look. I’m
very pleased with the results.

Wherever Todd goes the spotlight follows – he
inhabits a world peopled by those faces we all
recognise. But whether he’s caught on camera
shooting the breeze with Glenn Close, being
interviewed by the great Larry King, chatting to
Paris Hilton in the Green Room or entertaining
boxing world champion Wladimir Klitschko in his
studio, one thing’s certain: he’s always on the
lookout for the perfect conversation, expression
or idea to capture in his next painting!
Stirring Up The Day
Todd’s latest work has been created for his UK tour
and visualises British culture in his inimitable style.
This is a special painting for me since I spent 2
weeks in the UK studying the British people and the
flow of life, I went through many drawings before
coming up with this final idea - the first painting
I have ever done as an exclusive for the UK. The
frame was also a factor from the conception; while I
was there I took hundreds of photos of British pubs,
I wanted the framing to feel like the heavy wooden
architecture of the bar so the painting would be in a
genuine home setting.

Blue Birds
This piece was originally
going to be a group of
British girls, but somehow
they just kept turning
American – a home grown
girls’ night out – featuring
plenty of King’s Blue, one
of my all-time favourite
colours.

She Still Loves To
Feel Of The Pages
A nostalgic woman…there is something
so sexy about a woman who holds on to
something and wont let the “progress”
enter in her world. I do hear this a lot;
book stores are closing by the hundreds.
newspapers are almost gone, it’s all
digital. Is this a nostalgic painting or a
commentary on our time, Todd White style?
I wanted this frame to feel like a classic
bed frame, both to place the girl in context
and to give the overall painting a heaviness
that would contrast with and therefore
highlight her vulnerability.

Topanga
Canyon
This is where we live. It’s an
ex-hippie community but the
vibe is still here. It’s strange to
see young women who still love
the idea of this but don’t really
know what it means… it’s hard
to be a hippie while texting on
your new IPhone.

The Lot
It’s title is reference to the
studio lots and the deal
makers. To me, it is a
painting that captures the
deal makers dealing. I see
this in an office setting..

‘Todd is a compulsive observer of detail, and this collection shows a range of characters surrounded by the props that are a part of their performance as they go through life
- drinks, books, an item of clothing or even a cleaver… Todd spends his life people-watching, scribbling down sketches whatever the situation to record an idea for his next work.
While his subjects come from everyday life, his perspective is so unusual that he alters the way we perceive people and the roles we play around each other.’
