Featured Artist for March - Linda Holz
Color, contrast, subject, texture, peace, and adequate time motivate Linda’s desire to paint many aspects of nature from animals of all types to plants, including land and seascapes. The continuous challenge of painting in watercolor makes it her favorite medium. While Linda has painted in watercolor over 25 years, employment and caregiving responsibilities hindered her consistency in painting for a long time. To compensate since then, more time for practice, classes, critiques, workshops, juried shows, and travel have enriched the experience of watercolor painting for her. She describes painting in watercolor as spiritual and sublime.
