Art INSIGHT Scotty White by Benjamin Nunnally S cotty White might not be a name you know, but you should. He’s a Rainbow City-based artist who creates paintings that are color and pop-culture splashed on canvas, works that entertain with their vitality and sardonic sense of humor. White’s paintings go beyond the norm, with his custom-made canvases that can be taken apart and rearranged into new images. He’s in a strange world all his own, and we were able to spend a few minutes talking to him about personal demons, angry parents and punk propaganda. 28 Tell me about you, man. What do you during your days? Well, I’m very lucky that my wife has a great job. [Laughs] I worked with Wig’s Wheels for a while, and spent some time at Chevalier Productions doing sound work. Nowadays I raise my kid when I’m not working on art. How old’s the kid? Nine. Boy or girl? Boy. April 2014 INSIGHT
