Organizer
Linda Laforge
When traditional and digital artist Linda Laforge isn’t creating heirloom portrait commissions, she’s painting and writing. She is a storyteller. Her original work melds portraiture with her love of Celtic knot design to tell the stories of her subjects, mainly climate activists and heroic figures offering visual commentary on this time we live in.
Look for courses in traditional and digital art this fall and visit to get epic gifts and commissions.
