of figurative bronze and portrait sculpture living in Carmel, California. He has produced many

15_3
ranging from miners, to soldiers and fire fighters. He is credited with over fifty life size and

Lance Sergeant Jack Baskeyfield VC Tribute, The Spirit of 1948, and The Dr. John Roberts Monument.

Biography
15_25
The son of Campbell MacNaughton Whyte (retired Royal Air Force) and Janice Whyte (Homemaker,
15_26
Gardener and Artisan), Steven Whyte was born 17 March 1969 in Amesbury, United Kingdom and grew up
15_27
in various parts of Europe including Scotland, Germany, the Netherlands, England, and the Shetland
15_28
Isles.
15_29
Whyte, a dyslexic, has been described as first using art as a social solution, rather than a
15_30
potential vocation: "Art class was often the only place I felt confident that I could contribute
15_31
and learn at the same rate as my peers.” Whyte's first art courses were drawing and graphic
15_32
design, but it was not until high school that he began learning ceramics and sculpture. As an
15_33
undergraduate, he was granted a full scholarship and became the youngest applicant accepted to the
15_34
Sir Henry Doulton School of Sculpture, under the late Professor Colin Melbourne ARCA and Dame
15_35
Elisabeth Frink RA.
15_36
After leaving school, Whyte co-wrote the only validated figurative sculpture course in England and
15_37
accepted a teaching position at Stafford College. He then became the youngest member of the
15_38
London-based Society of Portrait Sculptors, where he served as Vice-President alongside President
15_39
Franta Belsky PPRBS, late sculptor to the Royal Family. Whyte's early career consisted primarily
15_40
of private commissions and portrait work, with over 70 completed commissioned official portraits to
15_41
date.
15_42
In 2003, Whyte opened his first US open studio and gallery on Cannery Row in Monterey, California.
15_43
In 2007, the Steven Whyte Sculpture Studio and Gallery moved to Carmel-by-the-Sea, California where
15_44
it is currently open to the public every day.
15_45
Artistic style
15_46
The human form is Whyte's preferred subject, and he typically works with live models whenever
15_47
possible. His sculptures are ultimately cast in bronze, but they begin as clay.
15_48
Steven Whyte describes himself as a "sculptor of people" and although his pieces are reminiscent of
15_49
classical figures, Whyte chooses to put importance on "the emotional quality and impact of the
15_50
sculpture" more than the adherence to traditional technique. Whyte intends for his work to have
15_51
"narrative and tangible personality".
15_52
Whyte currently works in a studio that is open to the public. The interaction and response has
15_53
become a part of his work. “There's a constant energy. It's like when a film actor does theater
15_54
and suddenly there's no distance between his work and the audience, the response is both immediate
15_55
and honest.”
