Early in her art career, Linda became skilled in the art of oil painting and completed several commissioned works. In 1999 her pastel painting, 'Mist Along the Hudson' was chosen by the National Pastel Society of New Mexico to be included in their National Exposition in Albuquerque. Linda has studied with professional artist Stanley Maltzman who is responsible for teaching her the love of pastels and the love of painting outdoors, 'en plein air.' In 1998 the New York State Fair in Syracuse selected her painting 'Nature's Jewel' for inclusion in the wildlife exhibition. Linda's acrylic painting 'A Time in History' was published in 'Bethlehem Revisited: A Bicentennial Story (1793-1993),' and was also printed in Albany International Airport's 'The Flyer,' which has a circulation of 10,000.
