Cynthia White has been making and exhibiting prints in Massachusetts and Maine for over twenty years. She works with varied print media, including linocut, wood engraving, etching and monotype...and experiments with combinations of these.

Her training has been varied as well. After receiving a BA in Fine Arts at Radcliffe College/Harvard University, she studied painting and design at the Carnegie-Mellon College of Fine Arts in Pittsburgh, painting and drawing at the Edinburgh College of Art in Scotland, drawing with William Flynn at the Schoolof the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and printmaking with Selma Bromberg at the Graphic Arts Workshop, Cambridge Center for Adult Eucation, Massachusetts.

The forms and rhythms of landscapes and the natural world have been the main focus of the artist's work, from marshes and sands of the Massachusetts shore to the streams, lakes and forest of Maine. In the past several years, the desert and canyon lands of Nevada and California have stimulated new ways of working with collagraph and monotype. Currently, she has been following an interest in prints as interface with poetry, working with authors on jointly produced books.
