Artist’s Statement
These are the places Environmentalists are trying to preserve. My work allows people to become more aware of the beauty being threatened. I strive to achieve a three dimensional quality that invites the viewer to enter the scene and revel in the landscape. Many collectors purchase a painting for its nostalgic value as well as its investment potential. Soon these places may be gone.
New Paintings
New paintings are added on a regular basis, so check back every couple of months to see scenic paintings of this wonderful country.

The Evolution of Carol
Mar. 31, 2008 — I sincerely hope year 2008 is going well for all of you.
As you know, I paint what I see, and this group of paintings show some of the animals I’ve encountered in my travels.
I have added a Portrait category to my website. All of the portraits are of family and not for sale, but commissions are welcome.
Those of you in the Kamloops area should look for my work in the Sagebrush Theater Lobby. More than a dozen paintings will be on display from April 15th to Mid June. Two of my paintings have been chosen for the local FCA juried show at the courthouse in Kamloops in April.
I will be signing with the Agora Gallery on 25th St. in Chelsea in New York City. If you are in the neighbourhood drop in and ask about me.
I will be out looking for new sources of inspiration this Spring, which will include a trip to Lake Louise and the Icefields in search of Waterfalls.
Hopefully we can get through the last of this dreadful Winter with good humor.
With kindest regards,
Linda McKenny
