| Linda makes expressive, abstract and conceptual art that provokes and often disturbs the viewer. She is intrigued by the dichotomy between permanence and transience, by ebb and flow, and by themes of memory, loss, and man’s failed interactions with humanity and with natural forces. The provocative and poetic titles of the works reflect Linda's background as a writer and communicator. By integrating the diverse streams of her sensibility, Linda creates art that glows with life and mystery while commenting on the tensions, disturbances and transcendence of the swirling forces that inform her perception of both internal and external realities. Background Linda has honed her skills through several courses at Ontario College of Art and Design and at Central Tech in Toronto. Since 2004, Linda has participated in workshops with Canadian abstract artist, Harold Klunder. In May 2007, Linda attended the Prairie North Creative Residency in Grande Prairie, Alberta. Linda's artwork has been published in Photo Life, Camera Canada and Art Focus magazines, and is in a number of private collections. |
