Todd Ryan White is an artist and illustrator based in Santa Fe, NM. His vibrant and detailed drawings combine fantastical and personal imagery, offering a glimpse into a world filled with drunken gods and mythical mishaps. White presents both a magical and skeptical perspective of the world; embracing the tension between knowledge and the void. Some of his past clients include Burton Snowboards, Vice Magazine, Corpse Corp. Skateboards, Blood Is The New Black, Tee Pee Records and Prosthetic Records. Some exhibition highlights include The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, The Indianapolis Museum of Contemporary Art and The Torrance Museum of Art. White is currently teaching at The Santa Fe University of Art and Design in New Mexico.
For his upcoming show at Stay Gold, entitled Hollow Moon, Todd will be showing work that spans his career as an illustrator for heavy metal bands as well as his personal drawings and paintings. 5 new paintings from the series “ViceLord” will be on display, as well as a new large scale drawing that is the culmination of a year’s worth of meticulous rendering.
