The Story
Size:13 x 13 in.
Dave White’s Panda II (8" x 8") is a powerful and emotive study of one of the world’s most beloved and endangered species. Painted in his signature expressive style, this intimate portrait captures the vulnerability and gentle nature of the panda, rendered with sweeping impasto strokes and a vivid, contemporary palette. Set against a striking crimson backdrop, the panda’s white fur is layered with textured strokes of lavender, soft grey and pale blue, creating a sense of movement and life. Flashes of violet and crimson within the eyes add a soulful intensity, inviting the viewer into a deeper connection with the subject.
White’s dynamic technique of layering paint and allowing brushstrokes to remain raw and visible imbues the piece with energy, while the deliberate use of colour highlights the panda’s endangered status and its precarious place in the natural world.
Renowned for his dedication to environmental themes, White’s wildlife works have captivated audiences worldwide. Panda II forms part of his ongoing exploration of species preservation, combining artistic brilliance with a call to action. Throughout his career, White has used his platform to support conservation efforts, raising awareness through art that is both visually arresting and deeply meaningful. This piece stands as a testament to his skill, passion and purpose.
