"The mountains are calling and I must go." --John Muir John Muir also known as "John of the Mountains", was a Scottish-American naturalist, author, environmental philosopher, glaciologist and early advocate for the preservation of wilderness in the United States. There is no time like the present to build awareness around the need to preserve our environment. My intention is to put Art into Action. This portrait was created on a paper mounted wood panel. I used watercolor and graphite to create the background and the face. The garment is put together with bits of litter I cleaned up off a scenic highway in California and recycled paper from my studio. With two coats of archival varnish this piece is Ready to Hang.

Linda Klein, a nature-loving artist hailing from the Bay Area, California, embarks on a soulful journey that harmonizes realism and abstract expression. Unveiling her artistic flair in preschool, Linda's earliest creative adventures prompted her parents to enroll her in local art classes—a bid to save their home from toddler graffiti and nurture her burgeoning talent. Nestled in the wild beauty of West Marin since 2009, Linda draws inspiration from her surroundings. Her artistic evolution mirrors the diverse landscapes she calls home—ranging from detailed graphite drawings to vibrant, ecologically themed pieces infused with recycled collage elements. Linda's unique process involves mounting watercolor paper onto handcrafted wood panels which are often created by her equally talented woodworking husband. This technique imposes a modern eco-conscious approach that bypasses traditional framing. Linda's art is a personal reflection, resonating with the rhythms of nature. With an unwavering commitment to continuing her creative education and a dance between documentation and new realities, Linda Klein's journey is a deeply personal ode to the beauty of our planet. Contact Linda Klein from her website to set up a personalized Home Art Studio tour in her light and roomy space, rain or shine:
