Meet the Artist: Linda Wheatley

Linda Wheatley, a Columbus native, has been an art lover for as long as she can remember. After retiring from her career as a kindergarten teacher, she finally had the opportunity to devote more time to exploring her creative passions. She describes herself as an "experimental" artist -- always wondering, "What if I try...?" and allowing curiosity to guide her process.

This winter, Linda is one of ten featured artists in the Winter Market at the Columbus Art Gallery, where shoppers can find unique, one-of-a-kind gifts for the holidays. The gallery is open Monday - Thursday from 1-5 p.m. and Saturday from 1-4 p.m., offering the perfect opportunity to enjoy local art and discover something special.
