LINDA STAR LANDON I ONCE HAD A SWING

16” x 20” — Oil $1,150

This painting is a nostalgic memory for me. I really did have a swing on a big old tree when I was a child. I can still remember the coolness and the scent under that tree. My work is about the beauty of the paint just as much as it is about the subject. Vivid colors and bold textures are the features of my style. It is such a joy to slather on big swatches of juicy color with my palette knife.
