Biography
Linda grew up on a farm near Nokomis, Saskatchewan. She began illustrating at an early age (the underside of her parent's kitchen table holds testimony to this fact). Eventually, she moved on to more conventional materials and filled stack upon stack of pink and yellow doodle pads with drawings of make-believe families and their life stories.
Many years later, she is still doing the same thing - but on better paper.
