We are delighted to announce that renowned British artist David Porteous-Butler has joined the White City Gallery family of artists.

David is best known for his distinctive oil paintings created using palette knives, but he is also a sculptor and keen photographer.

With his studio in Suffolk, England, David doesn't have to travel far to find inspiration for his work. However, a serious case of wanderlust has taken him to the far flung corners of the earth.
