Connect Deeply
“… the years you have roamed these fields and swamps …. I know something of what you have to express. The world never so wanted your message as it does now. It is hungry for the things you know.”
—Gene Stratton Porter in Girl of the Limberlost
Hi and Welcome!
I am Linda Ross Gallagher, a contemporary Canadian visual artist, based in Ontario, Canada.
Recording every day moments, my oil, acrylic and watercolour paintings give room for you to tell your own story.
If I can inspire you to see, hear, feel, taste, touch, to reconnect deeply to the healing of nature, to the joy of special moments, the awesomeness of places, people and everyday things, or to the making of art itself, then I have accomplished something worthwhile.
It all begins by being immersed in nature. I invite you to reconnect with me, to pause for some moments, feeling deeply, truly seeing with all senses involved. Whether indoors or outside, this is the foundation of my work, no matter the subject or medium used.
“I feel very much at home with it. It is just me. We are kindred spirits in nature. I really love that one.”
Annalee — Bothwell, Ontario
“I get that healing from nature, the freedom of being able to run all day long as a kid, running around with the kids from the street outdoors.”
Krys — Toronto, Ontario
“It is passionate and calm at the same time. … It is almost medicinal. My true medicine from pain was from outdoors. The blue and brown massive painting makes me stop in a good way. It makes me be quiet and still, a wonderful feeling.”
Paula — Waterloo
