Contemporary Painting

        " LINDA RORER's art reflects life played out in romantic dramas of rich light and emotional color. Passion and natural talent, tempered with many years of formal classical training and continual devoted study, create the basis of her fresh artistic vision.      
Luminous transformations create feelings of transcendence for viewers, as they too are caught in the moment. The large paintings send sensations poetic in power, while the small are the most intimate glimpses."

Who am I?  My landscape, figure and still life paintings reflect life as both a southerner and inveterate explorer of other cultures since age five. It is these experiences in other cultures that leads me to both comment on them and reflect upon my own. I live on Hilton Head Island in South Carolina.
