Coral Reef, Abstract Painting

2023

Artist Comments
From her After Midnight series, artist Linda McCord showcases vibrant reefs amidst a deep, dark sea devoid of light. The acrylic pouring technique forms organic-shaped cells, adding a sense of fluidity to the scene. The dramatic interplay between black and fluorescent colors creates a distinct contrast that draws the viewer into the mysterious underwater world.

About the Artist
Artist Linda McCord works with most two-dimensional mediums and creates fluid art using transparent layers. Embracing both a methodical and flexible approach, she delves into the scientific aspects of the process, incorporating mathematical concepts rather than emotions. "Composition and color schemes are my primary focus," says Linda. She managed her own gallery for a decade while also imparting her knowledge of painting and printmaking in college classes. Linda's dedication and self-taught journey have led to numerous awards for her work. She diligently spends eight hours a day, five days to six a week, in her spacious and paint-covered studio next to her home. In her spare time, Linda enjoys crafting Nuno felt hats, searching for reference materials, and marketing her creations.
