Linda DeHart creates art that carries the viewer beyond the object, to a place of inner transformation through the power of color. Founder and Principal of DeHart Art, LLC, Linda's mastery of color is expressed through digital art, watercolor paintings, applique tapestries, paper sculptures, silk paintings, and more. Her portfolio encompasses original and commissioned art ranging from large-scale architectural settings to small-scale individual works. In 2009, Linda launched Colors In Motion on her seventieth birthday at the British Consulate General Boston. She holds a BFA (1961) from the Rhode Island School of Design.
