About me

Industry Arts
Location Des Moines, Iowa, United States
Introduction Three years ago I realized that my early, seemingly unreachable dream of being an artist, was not so unreachable. My children were grown, I had a graduate degree and 30 + years in another field and no restrictions that prevented me from living out my dream. After minoring in art in undergraduate school I painted-canvases, chairs, walls-anything I could get my hands on it seemed. Raising a family had swallowed me up until I realized the kids were out of the house and I had my own life to live. I began taking art classes again from the local art center and attended a workshop on the business of art. After taking a week long sculpting class from a visiting artist in Santa Fe I was hooked. I now work parttime sculpting narrative sculptures in clay. Visit more images at lindalewisart.com
