Linda Nickell
Artist Statement
Inspired by nature, I enjoy creating landscape paintings that consist of many layers. Each mark, scrape and tear on the painted surface reveals the history and beauty underneath. We live in a fast paced world and many times only see what is on the surface while neglecting to look deeper for the hidden treasures beneath.
My hope is that the art I create brings the viewer into a closer looking experience and succeeds in expressing the beauty, intrigue and depth in the world around us.
