Carrie White was born in San Francisco, California and grew up in the Northern California areas of Mt. Shasta and McCloud. She and her family now live in Reno, Nevada. Carrie’s Grandmother taught her how to paint at age 6, which sparked a life-long love for art. Carrie comes from a family line of artists; both maternal and paternal grandmothers as well as her mother and father. Carrie’s passion for art continued throughout her studies and is expressed in her work today.
Carrie’s uses a vibrant pallet, as she is a self-proclaimed “color addict”. She is captivated by lively and colorful subject matter. Carrie enjoys creating artwork that jumps off the canvas at the viewer. She uses acrylic paints and bright colors to replicate her favorite places, share fond memories and let her imagination run wild. Carrie paints pieces that reflect her personality; vivacious, unique, bold and fun. She generates happiness, both for the viewer and herself, thorough her artwork. Carrie participates in Public Art opportunities whenever opportunity presents itself. She also enjoys conducting painting demonstrations in any venue and teaching lessons. Carrie continues to proliferate her works as her passion for artwork drives her to paint images from her heart and imagination.

Mighty Mike Schermer was a fixture on the Bay Area blues scene for over 20 years when he relocated to Austin TX in 2009 and joined the touring band of swamp-boogie piano legend Marcia Ball. He carved out a solid solo career, with four critically acclaimed CDs, an award winning single and thousands of performances at festivals and nightclubs the world over. He also became the “go to guy” sideman for such heavyweights as Elvin Bishop, Maria Muldaur, Angela Strehli, Bonnie Raitt, Howard Tate, Charlie Musselwhite, Sista Monica, Shana Morrison and many, many more. Oh yes…we may be judged by the company we keep, but when the spotlight shines a solo artist also must be able to bring the goods all on his own.
