Welcome to my online studio! My name is Linda Gosman and hope you will find as much pleasure in looking at my paintings as I did in painting them.  Utilizing only the finest of archival materials and pigments in both my originals and prints, they are meant to withstand the hands of time and give those who look upon them pleasure for many years   to come. My work also encompasses a variety of subject matter and techniques, allowing for my own artistic exploration and development, and indirectly providing viewers an opportunity to explore their own tastes and interests.

 

My venture into the art world began at an early age when a kindly neighbor gave me a book on, How To Draw Horses. Day in and day out I practiced until I was able to capture the beauty and strength in the majestic lines of that beautiful animal.  This success fostered a lifelong process of learning that continues even until today.

 

Over the years I have studied under, or attended workshops of, several notable artists including Charles Reid, Skip Lawrence, Don Andrews, Alex Powers, Mary Whyte and other talented artists who have encouraged and shaped my artistic vision and work.  Extending beyond my own pursuits I have taught watercolor classes and juried locally.  In addition, I was a contributing writer for the national magazine, American Artist, and had the joy and pleasure to interview many accomplished artists, learning their techniques and then sharing that knowledge with others.
