Linda Harper

I earned a BFA from East Texas State University and was a graphic and book designer in California before moving to Taos, New Mexico where I painted for 25 years. “Brush mileage” and many generous painting instructors who shared their knowledge and years of experience with me have helped me to develop as a painter. Throughout the years, my paintings became less impressionistic and more and more abstract to the point of expressionism. My abstract work is non-objective, occasionally figurative and stems from intuitive, energetic and painterly gestures, carefully balancing brush strokes, line, form and composition.
