ARTIST STATEMENT
Extraordinary moments are ordinary moments that have been noticed. My paintings celebrate the beauty of the overlooked moments of life – the unseen face, the forgotten flower, the bird in flight – all become extraordinary when noticed in the present moment.
ARTIST BIO
Linda-Jo (LJ) Duffy is an artist who lives in Woodinville, Washington. LJ works on multiple pieces of art at a time, employing representation, abstraction, and invention, while experimenting with a variety of conventional and unconventional mediums. Oil, acrylic, encaustic, and mixed media all find a home in her work. Using ordinary, familiar objects with sometimes ethereal figures, she mingles together many layers of paint and hinted patterns, creating a time-worn painting that hints at the wonder of the common experience.
