linda kelson

Linda Kelson is an abstract expressionist painter who has lived in San Diego since 1983. Her preferred medium is oils. She studied studio art at the Art Institute of Boston and again at Fairleigh Dickenson University in New Jersey where she received a bachelors degree. After working for years in the corporate world and painting part-time, she was able to devote herself full-time to her art and to her devotion to animal causes in 1990. As much as her works are experiments in color and texture, and movement, each painting has a message within it - sometimes more than one. Most of the works are about the environment, climate change, animal protection, or human rights.  She and her husband have been involved in animal and environmental causes for over 30 years.  All of her sales proceeds are donated to animal causes.
