The Art of Linda Murray
We are pleased to present a solo exhibit of works by artist Linda Murray. Her exhibit, merging nature and technology, is on view in the Round Rock City Council Chambers Gallery. Messages emerge from natural scenes, and still life studies are intertwined with QR codes, circuitry, and motherboards. You’ll find additional artwork to welcome you into Round Rock City Hall lobby.Â
Artist’s Statement: I have been a representational artist most of my adult life, although my paintings usually exhibited a conceptual element, also. In the last few years, I have found myself pulled toward more abstraction, but the work continues to keep that seed of a conceptual element.
Artist’s Bio: Murray grew up in Rotan, Tx, and graduated from the University of Texas at Austin. She was a long-time member of the Artists League of Texas, which became the Center for Contemporary Arts when she lived in Abilene and then Buffalo Gap. She now resides in Round Rock.
