The Owen Sound Artists' Co-op is thrilled to support long time (20 years!) member Linda Bester as she exhibits "30 Year Retrospective" in the Legacy Gallery for the months of April and May.
Join Linda in a celebration of her achievements on Sunday, April 12th, from 2pm to 4pm.
Linda allows us a rare glimpse into the full scope of her career, beginning with work from her youth, through to her popular present day watercolour and acrylic paintings and new mixed media projects.
We can follow Linda's journey as she navigates the world of professional art with support material and props that inform and create a mood evocative of the times. Her images and technique create a sense of light in her work that often difficult to
achieve, particularly with sensitive watercolours.
Linda's two passions, art and music are evident, as is her commitment to her art. Linda says, "I left all that was familiar behind to become an Artist, so once I owned the 'title' I was so excited and privileged to pursue this inner passion. Without knowing the level of success I would have, I didn't think, I just did."
Linda's well-documented journey is a fresh breath of sunshine, most welcome as we leave behind the cold days of winter!
"I burst out of the gate running and never looked back - well until now, I can't believe it has been over 30 years - each artistic layer seems like yesterday."
The Owen Sound Artists' Co-op is at 279 10th Street East.
