Originally from Stratford, Ontario, Linda holds a BFA (Honours) from University of Windsor and a certificate in Adult Education from University of New Brunswick. She has worked and volunteered in/for the cultural sector throughout her career. While drawing had been her OG studio passion, the revelation of weaving at the ‘Craft School’ (now NBCCD) in Fredericton, NB changed the trajectory of Linda’s artistic path. Most significant was her discovery of Saga Nishiki which has become the foundation and inspiration of her practice of woven paper textile now spanning nearly thirty years. Linda pursues her woven paper textile explorations out of her loft space in uptown Waterloo, Ontario.
