Born into a heritage of artists and musicians, Linda's "innate" ability and passion for the visual arts has been the most essential training on her journey as an artist. Since adolescence, Linda has been painting on canvas, designing, and creating art for her family and the community.

In a style that is contemporary yet reminiscent and inspired by the Impressionistic period, Linda's artistic philosophy captures the luminosity and essence of flowers, nature, and musical instruments with a strong use of unique textures, color, and free energetic brushstrokes. Her approach to painting is "simply to allow my soul to interpret the images and objects that I love to paint on canvas."

While working in homes doing interior painting and faux finishing, Linda further developed her painting style and utilizes many interior wall techiques on canvas. Linda's painting and faux finishing work is featured in many homes in her native New Jersey.

Linda has designed and painted CD covers for a renowned latin guitarist. Her logo creations for a glass jewelry designer and collaborations with local artists are credits she has enjoyed. Most recently she has collaborated with local authors to design the cover for their latest book.

As her work has become well received and talent widely known, Linda focuses on presenting her work at juried events with themes that support charities, benefit the community and promote healing, peace and serenity.

Linda credits her artwork as being inspired by "Memories and personal life experiences I have had throughout my life which are etched into my paintings and record what words can not express."
