Myth is a means through which cultures mediate their relationship with the natural world. My interest in these myths include local indigenous myths as well as myths from the Eastern and Western traditions. I often use animal forms and symbols, which appear repeatedly throughout a number of cultures; there is an overlay and intersections of cultures as they combine and reform their myths. The Rabbit in the Moon is a myth found in numerous Native American cultures, this particular image is influenced by the Mimbres of the Southwestern US (here in Arizona and in New Mexico) Although the current discussion of the environment focuses on what is happening now- my work is an attempt to connect with the past. Our environmental concerns are not unique and I try to address this with my artwork.

Also in Seattle she was also involved in a number of projects including a non-profit artist run gallery (Reller/Beffle) and setting up studio and performance spaces for artists. In 1992 Linda decided to further her studies and came to the University of Arizona at Tucson for a Graduate degree in Art History as a means to further her creative interests.
