Tortola has been Linda's home for over a decade.  She was born on the east coast of Canada where she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (NSCAS University), then moved to Canada's west coast.

Since relocating to the BVI she has been photographing, sketching and painting the turquoise waters, brilliant blue skies and cheerful West Indian architecture.

Recently the beauty of the Caribbean has captured her imagination through silk painting.  Each piece is a hand-painted original using silk dyes on 100% silk fabric.  Quirky and fun subjects like flapping laundry lines, lop-sided Century plants and roaming chickens are a few details intended to make you smile.
