| Biography: | |
| A life long love of nature and the great outdoors was instilled in Linda, by her Swedish parents at an early age, on their family farm in Smithers, B.C.
Linda has been an active member of the Federation of Canadian Artist for the past 14 years. She has continued her art education with many teacher over the years. She has painted in oil, water colour, pastels and currently works in acrylic.
She has won numerous awards through the Federation and Oceanside Arts Council.
Her paintings are in private collections. THE JOY OF PAINTING Growing up in Northern B.C. surrounded by majestic mountains, peaceful lakes and powerful rivers inspired me to paint and capture the moment. I have always believed that 'life is an adventure or nothing at all". This is reflected in my painting with vivid colour, boldness and freedom. I progress through this world of painting as I live my life, with enthusiasm and passion while definitely having fun. A good day of painting involves feeling my brush dance with "wildness" on my canvas. I am prepared to follow my dreams in this "adventure" of being alive. |
