Linda’s artwork has an ethereal, fanciful quality that is derivative of her childhood. She was influenced at an early age by her Disney artist grandfather and the works of Norman Rockwell, Andrew Wyeth and other prominent illustrators of the time.

Linda’s connection to England is evident in many of her works, as is her love of animals. She is a highly skilled artist who utlizes the notes, photos and sketches from her many sketchbooks and travel journals. She has the unique ability of recalling the fairy tale aspect of her childhood memories to add a little magic in her paintings.

Her paintings have been published in numerous books and magazines and are collected internationally. Later this year, the illustration of MR. BEAR’S BIRTHDAY PARTY from FLORIAN’S SPECIAL GIFT will be included in the book SPLASH 9. Linda is listed in WHO’S WHO OF AMERICAN WOMEN and WHO’S WHO IN ART OF GREAT BRITAIN.

She was founding director of the US Chapter of NAPA/National Acrylic Painters Association from 1995 through 2004 and is an active member of N.A.W.A/National Association of Women Artists, based in New York.
