NORTH PAINTINGS
My name is Whitney North and I paint acrylic on canvas. Those are all the facts of the matter. Why I paint? What inspires me? Those answers are far more vague…

“North Paintings are wonderful quality and have a very pleasing aesthetic appeal. I have been a collector for years and my home’s focal artwork is a large North Paintings original. I most enjoy the colorful geometric pieces. I look forward to acquiring my next piece!”

“We commissioned Whitney to create a memory of our beloved cat Sophie in her unique style for us. Memories can fade, and Whitney’s style was best fitting keep that memory alive. The painting is fun, bright, full of life, timeless and it is one of our favorite art pieces. Sophie’s memory could not be better framed and presented and we could not be happier with her beautiful creation for us.”

“Though several unforeseeable circumstances had to happen to get that painting into my possession, but boy am I happy about all of it. Whitney created The Dude without having my husband in mind but the painting represents him in such many a way that it had to be fate. Thank you Universe and thank you Whitney!!”

“My very first purchase of Whitney’s art were two of the seahorse paintings. Back then I was overly smitten by her way to present animals, especially because her paintings did not show the animal in full on one but rather on two frames. It will always be a wonderful journey for my eyes to look at paintings that allow me to see what Whitney has (had?) on her mind.”

This last Saturday I participated in the Annual Creswell Winter Lights Festival holiday market. I reached out last minute to see if they had an opening and as luck would have it, they had a last-minute cancellation. It was a great event, I was surrounded by wonderful vendors, and I am grateful to the coordinators…

“Different but the Same” (intended to be viewed at a 45 degree angle but social media doesn’t give me that option). They’re different kinds but they’re both goats.
