Artist Comments
Artist Linda McCord explores how light and emotion emerge from darkness in this abstract piece. Layered acrylic paint builds depth through transparent color. Darkness becomes a source of insight rather than emptiness. It reminds us that even in shadow, there is beauty, meaning, and quiet strength.

About the Artist

Embracing both a methodical and flexible approach, she delves into the scientific aspects of the process, incorporating mathematical concepts rather than emotions.

Linda's dedication and self-taught journey have led to numerous awards for her work. She diligently spends eight hours a day, five days to six a week, in her spacious and paint-covered studio next to her home.
