Linda Strock grew up in Phoenix, Arizona where she started sketching at an early age and enjoyed taking art classes in high school and college. After graduating from college, she pursued a career initially in the Washington, D.C. area and later returned to Arizona. As an adult, she continued to take art classes in drawing and painting, but didn't discover her favorite medium until an artist friend, Hank Richter, introduced her to sculpture. Linda has since left her "day job" to grow and expand as an artist. Her favorite subjects often relate to her favorite pastimes, such as hiking Arizona's beautiful canyons and trails, horseback riding or working with dogs and cats. She's taken art classes at Shemer Art Center, Scottsdale Artists School, and Scottsdale Community College as well as studied with private instructors. Linda is a juried member of the Arizona Artists Guild and the Arizona Art Alliance. Her artwork is in private collections from California to Maryland.

Both life and art are a rich blend of many different kinds of relationships. Just as we are all interconnected to one another and our environment in one grand scheme, art displays interrelationships of light, color, line, movement, proportion, etc. Each element of a painting or sculpture affects all of the other elements. My goal is to portray the beauty, grace and harmony in relationships that catch my eye and share them with the viewer.
