Featured Artist at White Porch Inn

Tadhg Slater is an American painter working between Provincetown, Boston, and New York. His practice is rooted in traditional materials, including linen, rabbit skin glue, marble dust gesso, and lead white, brought forward into a contemporary studio process.

2026 Featured Artist

For 2026, White Porch Inn and White Porch Gallery present  painter Tadhg Slater and his solo exhibition, Concrete Winter. His work offers guests a focused look at a body of work that holds its ground: composed, intentional, historically aware of where it stands in the lineage of figurative painting. These are not passive images. They demand to be met in real space, at full scale. The work is encountered up close, without distance or barrier. Provincetown has always been a place where artists test themselves, not decorate walls. Nothing here is asking for permission.


Concrete Winter

Concrete Winter brings together thirteen paintings created during the winter of 2025–2026 in an unheated concrete studio near the Provincetown waterfront. The conditions shaped the process, materials, and pace of the work.


The series combines cubist abstraction with restrained figurative elements. Dense surfaces, visible brushwork, and strong color create paintings that move between structure, fragmentation, abstraction, and representation.

Questions About Our Gallery Collections?

Interested in the featured artwork or White Porch Gallery Collections? Contact White Porch Gallery to learn more about available pieces, preview opportunities, or acquiring individual works from the Collections. We’re happy to provide details for guests, collectors, and institutions. Dietmar Brixy's powerful paintings are in our gallery's  international collection. This artist not only uses tools to create his paintings but is quite literally “hands on,” shaping the thick impasto oils into organic and vegetal structures directly with his hands like a sculptor. The end result of this dance-like practice on the canvas is a sensation of color that is dynamic and baroque. White Porch Gallery also houses pieces from local painter Steve Bowersock.  Bowersock is committed to digging into the representational surreal mindset, a tripping of the mind from the natural to the personal. Creating unique dreamscapes, he contemplates and parses the subject matter of what lies on the edges of comprehension.
