Collection: Linda Wilder

Growing up an ‘air force brat’, Linda travelled extensively across Canada, and settled in Alberta. Her creative ability was readily evident as a child and eventually was able to follow her destiny. Her education consists of formal training in Red Deer College (Art & design) and U of C BFA program as well as numerous workshops with acclaimed artists.

Linda is a prolific artist and enjoys a variety of tools (her favorite being the palette knife). Living in Calgary and painting full-time, she has enjoyed many successes and accolades. In Canada, she is represented by Mountain Galleries in Banff, Jasper, Whistler and Stratford. In The USA, The Bronze Coast Gallery in Oregon, and the Frame of Reference Gallery in Whitefish Montana. Linda's paintings are enjoyed in both corporate and private collections across Canada and world-wide.

With intuitive energy and the use of bold strokes, light, and texture, Linda strives to capture the mood and emotion of her environment. Her paintings appear vividly representational, but upon closer inspection, one can see the intimate nuances and abstract tendencies which elevate and enrich her work
