About the Artist |

For
Linda, the creation of Art, is a necessity of life.
Although inspired, in her early years, by the Dutch
Masters, the Impressionists, early American Art and the
Canadian Group of Seven, she was and is equally impressed
by any artist who is technically proficient, particularly
those who create art of an uplifting nature.
Always intrigued and compelled by the sense of further
dimension on a two-dimensional plane, the well-known story
of the man who fell so in love with a painting that he
eventually walked right into it, has been one of Lindas'
most powerful influences.
A
major affirmation of her personal accomplishments came about
one day when some birds that were at a feeder on the outside
of an open window, flew inside. When attempting to
escape, they kept flying into her landscapes, until
she was able to guide them out the correct exit.
Her message, as an artist, is not one of catharsis, or
shock, but rather of harmony, peace of mind, and
transcendence over the pain, boredom, insanity and
frustrations of daily life. With her wide-ranging ability to capture almost any subject, Linda has fulfilled many commissions. She has exhibited at the DADA Downtown Lives Show, in several group shows in downtown Los Angeles, in restaurants and cafes and has work in private collections in the U.S. and Canada.
She has also
taught private art classes incorporating drawing,
composition and perspective.
After working for years with a tight hand, in her
personal, commissioned and commercial art, Linda was driven
to break free. Out of this, came very striking
paintings of geometric cityscapes, 3D abstracts and a
compulsion to develop impressionistically.
She
has also delved into the computer and become proficient in
PhotoShop as demonstrated in her City Moods, City Nights
Series, Childrens' Plaques, the Tropicals, Butterflies and new Photographic
sections like Florals and her Memories of Moss Landing
series. Seeking a permanent showcase for her work, Linda has put together this web-site. If you have any inquiries, please contact Linda through her email address below.
