Since then, Linda has travelled extensively and lived and worked in both Canada and the United States. In 1990 she enrolled in a nursing programme and graduated three years later. Linda worked in the medical field, both in Canada and the U.S., for almost a decade before returning to college in 1999 where she obtained her Practitioners Degree in Holistic Medicine. She worked in this field until 2004.
Linda began painting in 1985 after the birth of her daughter, Erika. She is self-taught, painting exclusively in water-colours, acrylic, and mixed-media; digital pathways of abstract illusions. She has now invested over twenty years developing and strengthening her skills. Much of Linda’s inspiration came from her experiences through her southwest travels, namely the warm deserts of Arizona. Linda has worked her way into the industry and has already had a number of exhibits in Canada, the U.S., Europe and as far as Japan. More-over, she was commissioned for a number of pieces. Recently, as of 2009 Linda has explored illusions with photography, another great passion of hers,. Linda’s reputation continues to grow and with that so does the demand for her renderings. She has been approached by a number of reputable galleries across Canada, the U.S., and Europe to put on exhibits in 2010, 2011, and 2012.
Linda looks forward to each and every opportunity to share her visions and to where the next horizon might take her.
Linda has expanded her visions in other areas as well:
• ‘Life, Faith, Hope’ Beyond the Shadows of Life
• ‘Island Treasures’ coming soon!ver menos
