About the Item
"Gift of Spirit" features rich aquas, blues and a touch of orange streaked with pearlescent accents that play across this beautiful abstract original work by Linda Whittemore. This rare oil on wood displays all of the unique skill and painterly touch of the artist, who draws her inspiration from the natural beauty that surrounds her on her home of Maui. This painting is on a curled wood box and is framed in a simple float frame, wired and ready to hang!
Linda works in a printmaking style called viscosity monotype, although she is trained in the traditional form of Intaglio printmaking. Her works are a story of color and mood, She continues to paint scenes around the island of Maui and further abstracts them in her studio using the printmaking process. Often, watercolor plein aire paintings are a prelude to her original monotypes. “It’s all a process, one medium leads to the next. We create from what we know or don’t know. My paintings are who I am.” Linda also has enjoyed painting the figure for many years.
Linda began a life long relationship with watercolor painting at the age of eight. She studied two full years with the past president of the Watercolor Society, Roger Armstrong, as well as other teachers like Chris Sullivan, Hiroke Morinue, Richard Nelson, Roger Folk George Allen and John Cosby. Chris Nugent was a student of Phil Dike, Millard Sheets and Rex Brandt. Sullivan was also a student of Diebenkorn, so Linda was able to gain a very contemporary understanding of painting. Her mother is Margaret Bedell, a well-known painter. Her grandmother was Margaret Hogarth Trumbull, notably an accomplished Plein AIre painter.
Linda grew up in Laguna Beach, California. Linda exhibited in the Art A Fair as a young artist and apprenticed in the Corona del Mar Studio as a printmaker with other printmakers that had worked at both Gemini and Crown Point Press.
She attended Laguna School of Art for several years, also Saddleback and Orange Coast Colleges, and Mira Costa College in Southern California where she studied printmaking..
Linda’s work is part of the Hawaii State Foundation Art Museum Collection located in Honolulu.
Linda currently spends time between Maui and at her family home in Corona Del Mar. Her work is represented in Laguna Beach at Pacific Edge Gallery.

View All"Earth and Fire" Mixed Media abstract with textural greens, aqua and orange
By Nancy Eckels
Located in Laguna Beach, CA
"Earth and Fire" is a beautiful abstract painting by Nancy Eckels. It exhibits the bold colors and textures that her work is known for. Using sculptural texture with beautiful greens, aqua, and orange contrasted with flowing textures of orange and yellow highlights, this painting creates both a peaceful and dynamic mood.
Nancy became a full time artist only after ending another creative career. She moved to California to attend college, and happily worked in television for many years. She was a director on the CBS daytime drama, "The Bold and the Beautiful" when she decided to move on to full time painting. Given her family background, it seemed like the most natural transition she could make.
Nancy was born in Kingston, New York, but moved to Utah at age 7 when her father was transferred for his work. With her family, she spent her summers exploring many of the national parks, and natural wonders of the west where her father loved to fish and photograph. He instilled in her a love and appreciation for the beauty and colors of nature, while her mother taught her many of the lessons of art.
Nancy gained quite an art education through "osmosis" while being around talented family members. She has learned much from working with several experimental abstract painters, including Katherine Chang Liu, Carole Barnes...
