Linda Elliott was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest. Her Childhood was filled with hours of exploring the beautiful fields and woods of Western Washington. Animals were ever present in her environment and her obvious love of them emanates from each one of her paintings. “I spent a lot of time around animals as a child, especially cattle. They are a natural subject for me. They have a certain serenity, and innate peacefulness that can be soothing to the soul,” Her paintings are approached with an appreciation of the aesthetics of the animals and their environment, often with a touch of humor. She takes the material furnished by nature and with a unique artistic vitality creates a glowing representation of life. Linda’s work is easily recognized by the strong sense of form and design, dramatic light and dark contrasts, and wonderful earthy colors with rich texture. Linda has been working as an artist for 30 years and never tires of the joys of creativity and the challenge of making ideas manifest on canvas. She has traveled and exhibited in many art shows throughout the country. Her award winning art work resides in collections throughout the U.S., Canada and Europe. |
