Linda Truman's interest in the natural world is manifested in up-close-and-personal, bug's-eye-view watercolors and pastels. Her images are often portrayed larger than life to draw the viewer in and enhance the feeling of intimacy with familiar subjects. Primarily self taught, Linda's travels to shores, forests, mountains and plains throughout North America provide her with the observations and inspirations necessary to depict her subjects with integrity. Her passion for observing and documenting nature is obvious in her "One Small Square" series which explores the wealth of life present in even the most simple environments. Her work is part of numerous private collections. She also creates hand formed ceramic jewelry which is lightweight and uniquely original.
