Linda Suskind-Kosmer (b.1955) is a mixed-media artist in paint and ceramics. She lived in Long Island, NYC, and Brooklyn before moving to upstate New York. She holds a BFA from Philadelphia College of Art and studied at Tyler School of Art in Rome. Linda has participated in numerous solo and group shows in New York City, New York State, and Philadelphia. She has been awarded residencies at Millay Colony in New York and, most recently, at Chateau D’Orquevaux in France. Her abstract and surreal artwork draws inspiration from everyday objects, dreams, and landscapes. Her psychological and visceral art serves as a medium for exploring her emotions. In addition to studio practice, she paints plein air in her sketchbooks while traveling in Italy and around her rural home, documenting and inspiring her studio work.
