Linda Berkley<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI remain profoundly moved by my exposure to the striking scale and scope of the Icelandic landscapes\/seascapes\/skyscapes. My experience of its influences on Icelandic culture and artistic perspectives was when I was last an Artist-in-Residence at NES, Skagastr\u00f6nd ten years ago. I have long dreamed of returning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I presently work with \u2018Rozome\u2019 or \u2018Roketsuzome\u2019 and \u2018Katazome\u2019 (Japanese resist dye painting techniques), and natural pigments; exploring a brilliance of color relationships, a balance of design untethered by western perspective and line quality. Building on intensive drawing, experimental Rozome techniques, and watercolor studies, I\u2019m following my observations as they translate into visual pattern, symbol, and expression; a correspondence between my inner and outer world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Linda Berkley is a visual artist residing in the Pacific Northwest with her husband and cat, working in her studio and in nature, www.lindaberkley.com, in celebration of creative process and the power of observation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Retired from teaching after 27 years as a college art professor, Linda\u2019s educational background includes BFA Museum School of Fine Arts, Boston, MFA University of Arizona, and Scientific Illustration certificate from University of Washington. She has attended residencies in Japan, DrawInternational France, Vermont Studio School and Anderson Ranch, Colorado.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
