About the Item
Comfy cozy is conjured by this wondrous work, but what is it? A flower, an abstraction or something unique in nature? It's a delightful caterpillar curled up into a ball resting on the abstracted mossy base of an ancient oak tree.
This work, hovering between abstraction and representation, becomes interactive and alive through the artists' made by hand one of a kind work. Created with their original artist process, known as Metalagram®, this work was developed at the intersection of art + science. The artists use old world techniques + 21st century technology to create sculpturally in layers. A dimensional interactive experience is rendered with the work appearing differently from 180 degree vantage points. At varying angles of incidence lighting impacts the work as photons dance across the hand cut layered aluminum.

Linda's friends and family share stories of her constant - painting, drawing, and doodling. However, it wasn't until age 50 that Linda wholeheartedly embraced her visual generative art practice as her life's mission. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from the Literature, Science & Arts College at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, and obtained her JD in 1979. Collaborating with her eldest son Theodore (Teddy) Schinkel in 2010, her artistic journey evolved. Linda, an outsider artist, had artistic education from multiple institutions, including the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, Sorbonne University of Paris, Paris France, National Geographic in Siena Italy and a National Geographic Around the World Photography Intensive. She had a residency at the Ox-Bow School of Art, Saugatuck MI and an Artist Residency at Cranbrook, Bloomfield Hills MI, a renowned center for art, education, and science. Linda's works exude a captivating blend of synergy and sublime metaphysical connections. Enjoying gallery representation since 2004, Linda's artistry has been featured in "Style" and "Ambassador" magazines before publishing as an artist duo in "The Wall Street Journal," "USA Today," and "World Wide Art Books." Linda attributes the uniqueness of her works and trajectory to following in her parents' footsteps, leveraging right and left brain hemispheres. Linda was honored with the 49th Distinguished Women’s Award from Northwood University, Midland MI.
