Linda Hancock Biography
Hello! My name is Linda Hancock
I was born and raised in Colorado and have been blessed to live in many equally wonderful places through the years: Utah, Idaho, Alaska, Missouri, South Dakota, Nevada, and Arizona. I love to be out in nature, exploring and soaking in all that natural beauty. I’ve discovered I’m in my “happy place” when creating my version of that natural beauty.
My style is an impressionist impasto style (heavy texture) acrylic painting. My primary tools are palette knives. My paintings are bright, colorful, and happy, and they are meant to be touched to experience the texture fully. I experienced such joy when a little boy touched the cabin in one of my paintings and said, “Mommy, it feels just like real wood.” I paint mostly landscapes with an occasional structure and sometimes include a bird or small animal. Sunsets and sunrises are my favorite skies to paint, and aspen trees are my favorite trees. Thank you so much for taking the time to view my art and perhaps touch one of my paintings.
