Linda is a  modern artist with romantic sensibilities, her artwork conjures images of serene Yeats-like landscapes. Greene’s oeuvre is one for both collectors and art lovers to enjoy. She explores themes of representation, human connection, and, perhaps above all else, love. The artworks are fragmented and mirage-like, resisting prevailing artist conventions to present a vision that both unsettles and appeals to the viewer.
