LINDA MYLIN ROSS catscapes

First Friday Artist's Reception, November 7th, 5:00 to 8:00

exhibition continues thru December 3rd

LINDA MYLIN ROSS is intrigued by her feline companions and their characteristic playful abandon. In this recent collection of work, she captures them as "they observe, stalk, and cavort in the shadowy periphery of our domestic consciousness." In this series of drawings, she says, "charcoal is used to create the world of texture, pattern, light and dark, our wild-at-heart felines inhabit." Charcoal is a Linda's specialty and she often addresses environmental issues in this medium, drawing inspiration from the Lancaster County countryside. An earlier series, "The Turtle's View" is currently featured in the Presidential Suite at the Lancaster Arts Hotel.
Linda Mylin Ross taught studio art, art education and art history at Penn State Harrisburg where she was a faculty member for 25 years. There she coordinated art exhibits in two campus galleries. She holds an MFA from Maryland Institute College of Art, an MA in Interdisciplinary Humanities from Penn State and a BS in Art Education from Millersville University. In 2008 she left teaching to shift her professional focus entirely toward her own art. She has exhibited her drawings and paintings widely in museums, galleries and regional, state and national juried exhibits, winning numerous awards.
The Pennsylvania State Museum, The Woodmere Museum, Philadelphia, The Demuth Museum, The Reading Museum, The Susquehanna Art Museum, The Lancaster Museum of Art and The Paul Robeson Center, State College are a few of the institutions that have exhibited her work. Her work has been included in juried exhibitions, including the Doshi Center for Contemporary Art, “Images 2001” and “Images 2004;” the Pennsylvania State College, New Arts Program; “Eastern Pennsylvania Artists’ Small Works,” Kutztown, PA; “Pennsylvania Artists,” the Governor’s Mansion, Harrisburg, PA; and the “Pennsylvania Painters and Printmakers,” Penn State University. She participated in “The Annual Small Works Invitational” at Blue Mountain Gallery, Chelsea, NY: and Susquehanna Artists Invitational II at Messiah College, Grantham, PA. Penn State University, Elizabethtown College, the Harrisburg Hilton, and numerous other public collections include her work.
The artist lives in her restored, historic house of thirty years in Marietta, PA, with her husband Michael and several feline friends.
