Item Description

Linda Gleitz studied art at the University of Colorado and then had a family and a job that consumed most of her time for 35 years. She has been fortunate to turn back to her artwork full time for the last four years. She shows locally, regionally and nationally. She enjoys supporting the art community in her hometown of Longmont, Colorado by participating in Artwalk, Longmont Studio Tour and other local events. She installed 150 ceramic birds at the Longmont Museum as a part of her “Capistrano” series and facilitated a collaborative project on the same topic at the Salud Medical Clinic in Longmont. She has volunteered art teaching at Soft Voices, a drop in center for mentally ill people in Longmont. She recently completed a mosaic mural with those folks. She also shows nationally in places like Laguna Beach and Chicago. She is most proud of her recent inclusion in the “National Women’s Caucus for the Arts Best of 2014” show in Chicago and of their 2015 show, "WCA at Westbeth". She was in the company of some really amazing nationally known artists there and she felt very honored to be included. Her work can be found in some publications including “Night of A Hundred Angels”; “Women’s Right’s an Artist’s Perspective", sponsored by Unite Women.org”; "WCA at Westbeth" (show catalog) and "Voices, an Artist's Perspective" (also a show catalog). All books are available at Amazon.com. She hopes to continue making art until the day she dies…hopefully making the world a little more beautiful.
