About Linda Wallentine

 
 
  • Biography
    I have always been compelled to explore and express elements of the human experience as an artist and story-teller.

    Although we are all on separate journeys with individual paths, we are connected through our emotional state-of-being. Through exploration and reflection on my own emotional experiences and journey so far, I strive to create a dialogue between viewer and art that explores these connections.

    I hope people feel something when they see my art. Whether that be a feeling of loss, a recognizable sensation of pain, sadness, or longing, I hope to create a moment that is both deeply personal and simultaneously ambiguous enough for the viewer to connect to as well.
