Linda Anderson’s quilts tell the compelling narratives of people from many cultures around the world using images gathered from her travels. Her realistic depictions celebrate the ordinary moments of people’s lives that often go unnoticed, capturing the essence of the humanity we all share.

Within the swirl and frenzy of life, there are ephemeral moments that remind us of our inner beauty, our strength, our fragility, earth’s wonder, and the cycle of life and decay. Remnants of debris on a pathway, a faded color on a crumbling wall, a glimpse of light and shape in a darkened space, an unexpected texture, a footprint in sand.  Being mindful of these moments and capturing them reminds us of the connections that live eternally beyond us.
