About the Studio

 

Hello Dear Lovely Soul,

Welcome to my world of enchantment and artistry!

I'm thrilled that you've taken an interest in my work, which is a fusion of bold, captivating line work reminiscent of graphic novels, infused with the timeless allure of classic fairytales. With each line of my pen, I aim to delve deep into the souls of the characters I bring to life, inviting you to step into their world and rediscover the magic you may have once dreamed of.

My fascination with storytelling dates back to my earliest memories. As a child, I delighted in unraveling the hidden symbols tucked within the pages of books and the frames of movies, deciphering the intricate messages they held about characters and plot twists. This passion led me to the world of tarot, where each card unfolds a rich tapestry of narrative possibilities at your fingertips.

In my artistic journey, I revel in exploring various mediums, infusing life into my creations from paper to fabric or clothing. Carving linoleum blocks is where my soul truly sings; the process is akin to carving in the dark, with the final reveal holding an element of delightful surprise. Each carved line carries the essence of the animal I hope will emerge, culminating in simple yet evocative silhouettes that draw the viewer in. As I print these independent linoleum blocks together, they engage in a lively conversation on the fabric, weaving a narrative that captivates the imagination.

At the heart of my craft lies a deep commitment to handcrafted, locally made goods, grounded in ethical practices. I'm passionate about creating art that not only delights the senses but also resonates with a sense of authenticity and sustainability.

I'm excited to continue this journey of creation and discovery, and I can't wait to share more of my art with you!

With warmth and creativity,
Linda
