As part of Linda's inspiring placement in such a selective and competitive competition (in the top 8 award-winners), her piece "Footsteps" will be published in the hardcover book that celebrates the award-winners and top 50 finalists in the International Art Search 2011 Paintings & Drawings International Exhibit.

The 31st edition of "Who's Who in American Art 2011"
is due out in November 2010.

Linda has been honored once again; she will be included in the Marquis "Who'sWho in American Art," a publication that contains the biographies of noteworthy artists, featuring commissions and exhibitions, museums holding their work, awards, books and articles by and about them, the media in which they work, along with personal and professional histories. The book's release in November 2010 will be anxiously awaited.

Treehaven #1 and Footsteps #1 were highlighted
in the June 2010 issue of the French magazine "Pratique des Arts."

It isn't a surprise that Linda Gross Brown's works have started capturing the attention of Latin American and European collectors. Linda's participation was recently requested in a French art magazine, Pratique des Arts. She and her two award-winning pieces "Footsteps #1" and "Treehaven #1" were featured in the June 2010 issue of the magazine - a special issue illuminating the pastel artists of the world. "Pratique des Arts" has been described as "roughly speaking, the equivalent of The Artist Magazine" [in Europe]" by Laurent Benoist, a journalist for the magazine.

Writer James A. Metcalfe, of American Artist Magazine,
sheds some light on Linda's gifted technique in December's issue.

"Love at first touch" is how Brown describes her initial experience with the medium. "I could paint with my fingers and not just a brush," she explains. "It really made me a part of the work, which was so freeing, so intriguing. The ability to paint with my fingers makes this medium a pleasurable and personal experience." - Excerpt from the feature article about Linda Gross Brown in the December 2009 issue of "American Artist" magazine
American Artist Magazine writer, James A. Metcalfe, had the same questions about Linda's masterful process and finished work that her devoted followers do. In his article, he delights us with answers. A perfect mixture of James' well-put questions and Linda's colorful and descriptive answers gives us a finished article that is not only extremely fascinating but downright inspiring.
