Artist : Linda Fisher

Media/Specialty: Oil Painting, Photography & Jewelry

Background: I used to draw all the time but was discouraged by my forth grade teacher so I quit. I went blind at ten, got some sight back six months later; I see only out of one eye. I started painting in Germany in my forties. Came back to the states in the seventies and took art classes from Connie George. I can't see details from nature with my limited sight so I started taking pictures so I would have something original to paint from, I use a magnifying glass to see fine details. I was told I should enter my photos in the fair so I did and got firsts the first time. I started making earrings in 2005 because I couldn't find clip-on's that I liked, from that I went to crocheting wire into necklaces.
