“To catch one of her paintings within one`s field of vision is to taste the salt, feel the wind and loose one`s soul in the breathtaking outdoors that is the coast of Pembrokeshire.”
Mererid Hopwood
“Linda's
work is a mess, but in the end you can see something!”
Darren, aged
8
“...there
are few artists who can rival Linda Norris in her ability to capture
the essence and beauty of a landscape in such an economy of brush
strokes. ”
Jill
Hutchins, Director, The New Academy Gallery
“I've
lived in Pembrokeshire all my life and Linda's work really reflects
the wildness of the place, what Pembrokeshire is all about - craggy
rocks, the sharpness, the wind. You feel you can see these views
from anywhere, they are real to me.”
Neale Lewis, Business
Banking Manager
