Linda Bigness is an internationally exhibited artist who maintains a gallery/studio in
Syracuse, New York. Her work has been exhibited in several prestigious
solo and group shows that have involved notable jurors such as art critic
Clement Greenberg, Ivan Karp, director of OK Harris Gallery in NYC, and Tom
Piche, director of the Daum Museum of Contemporary Art. In addition,
Bigness’ large scale paintings are often selected and commissioned for corporate
and residential clients, including the Turning Stone Resort, Merrill Lynch
Corporation, Haylor, Freyer and Coon, and Bausch and Lomb. She continues
to exhibit professionally at several venues with artwork featured frequently at
the Nan Miller Gallery in Rochester, NY.

Presently she is working on
her latest book and exhibition about abstract art and the contemporary processes
used by working artists today. Part of the research for this book is taken
from the workshops she teaches and her oil painting and mixed media collage
experience. For over 30 years Bigness has used her expertise to
share with others the unique beauty and processes of her chosen medium through
writing, teaching and professional exhibits.

Her first book “Paint It,
Tear It, Create It” offered the reader insight into visual abstract thinking
through the process of collage into painting. She continues to explore the
abstract through surface manipulation using encaustics and oil and is currently
working on a new series, the “Journey Stones Revisited,” that reflects her
extensive travels through the United States and Europe.
