Stewart White – AWS, NWS, ASMA (and so many other initials but really, who keeps track)
Stewart White is an artist from Easton, Maryland. He works as freelance illustrator specializing in architectural illustration. The flexible nature of watercolor painting can impart both precision and illusion, for that reason it is extremely useful in conveying as yet unrealized concepts with great efficiency. Besides illustration, Stewart is always out and about painting “en plein air” or in studio.

Stewart studied at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn and after serving 3 years in the US Army he received a BFA from UC Berkeley with a minor in Art History. As a carpenter of many years his interests found a perfect balance between Art and Architecture in a career in architectural illustration. His skill in both oil, egg tempera and watercolors have garnered many awards. He is a Grand Prize winner of several of the country’s most prestigious plein air competitions, which in a field dominated by oil painters is a significant accomplishment.

Stewart is a past President of the Mid-Atlantic Plein-Air Painters Association (MAPAPA). He exhibits his paintings in juried and gallery exhibitions throughout the US. Stewart is a member of the American Impressionists Society (AIS), a signature member of the National Watercolor Society (NWS), a signature member of the American Watercolor Society (AWS) as well as the American Society of Marine Artists (ASMA) and past President (2012) of The American Society of Architectural Illustrators (ASAI). He has spent many years as a mural painter with commissions that include: the Smithsonian Institute, The US Naval Academy, The Texas Rangers Baseball Club and prestigious homes too many to list.
Stewart White is represented by Folly Cove Gallery in Rockport MA. And By McBride Gallery in Annapolis, MD.
