This month’s featured is Cove artist and educator Linda Lapierre. Lapierre, owner of Lapierre Designs, has begun her third year as the creative arts teacher for Taylor Creek Elementary School with the Lampasas Independent School District.
Lapierre will be showing her paintings of birds, animals and close-ups of insects. She stretches her own canvas and primes it herself for painting, so she can create any size painting she needs. She also uses whatever paints she has available, including craft paints, to create her work. Lapierre shared about her technique and inspiration.
