Artist: Linda Gooding

Linda's artistic journey started in high school. Instead of sticking
to a traditional academic path, She jumped right into College at
t16, studying the intricacies of Technical Illustration and Graphic Design. It wasn't until her mid-
twenties when she picked up a pencil and started sketching
animals that her true passion for art was born. Since then, she has
been painting wildlife using watercolours , in recent years she
has added acrylic and mixed media. Every brush
stroke is inspired by the breathtaking nature around her,
from the ocean waves to the stunning sunrise and sunsets,
capturing the essence of flora and fauna in all its glory.
