‘Into the forest’ By Linda Nevill
Early morning after a snowfall the delicate pink sky reflects on some of the snowflakes. It is one of those beautiful starts to a Winter day. Snow resting on branches and thin twigs and crunchy snow on the path.
Oil paint thickened with cold wax helps to enhance that tactile effect and enables some raw pigment to be embedded into the image.

Linda’s latest body of work, which includes a series of oil and cold wax paintings, as well as intricate pieces created with charcoal dust, cold wax, and oil paint. Additionally, Linda will be presenting a selection of her stunning works on Arches huile paper, thoughtfully mounted and wrapped for the browser.
Linda’s artistic process is rooted in her profound connection to the landscape. As a passionate outdoor painter, she delights in sketching and painting in all weather conditions, immersing herself in the environment around her. Her plein air studies – created directly from nature – form the heart of her creative practice. These outdoor sketches allow Linda to capture the pure essence of the landscape, bringing its atmosphere and energy into her work.
For Linda, working outdoors is not just a means of observation but a way to communicate with the land itself. She has a special ability to translate the emotions and sensations generated by the natural world into her artwork, giving viewers a glimpse into her personal experience with nature. Her sketches act as a foundation for her studio paintings, where she brings the energy and feeling of the outdoors back into the studio.
Once inside her studio, Linda transforms these outdoor studies into atmospheric works, layering oil paint with cold wax to build depth and texture. The combination of oil and cold wax allows Linda to create a richness and tactile quality in her paintings, giving each piece a sense of intimacy and presence. Her work feels alive, as though it holds the very spirit of the landscapes she’s observed, a memory of the outdoors that she carries within herself.
