Welcome to The Paper Boat Den, the creative home of Oakland-based fine artist Marlene White.
 
With over three decades of professional dedication to my craft, my work captures constant visual evolution across multiple mediums—including intricate paintings, detailed drawings, traditional block printing, contemporary digital art, and animated video works.
 
As a Deaf, queer woman artist, my lived experiences, intersectional identity, and the vibrant community around me deeply shape my creative vision.
 
Whether you are here to explore the journey of my shifting gallery collections or browse wearable art and fine art prints in my shop, I warmly welcome you into my creative mind and world.
