Linda Charles

Linda Charles, an artist with a background in textiles and fashion, has built a career defined by her innovative and boundary-pushing approach to art. Her university studies ignited her passion for texture and pattern, themes that remain central to her work today. Over the past 25 years, Linda has explored countless techniques and materials, from gold and silver leaf to heavy textures and mixed media, continually evolving as an artist.

In the early 2000s, Linda became one of the UK’s most renowned abstract artists, propelled into the contemporary art world during the interior design boom. Her use of structure, vibrant colours, and luxurious materials earned her widespread acclaim.

Among her most celebrated works is her "Pulp Reimagined" collection. Inspired by the vintage paperback books of the 1940s, '50s, and '60s, Linda pairs these nostalgic visuals with lyrics, songs, and artists that hold personal and cultural significance. The concept was born when Linda discovered a box of old books in her attic, and a cover image sparked the idea of blending the aesthetics of classic pulp novels with the emotional resonance of music. This unique fusion of audio and visual storytelling has earned praise from art collectors, music lovers, and even renowned songwriters.

Linda paints to music in her studio, allowing the rhythms and emotions of each song to influence her creative process. Her work resonates across audiences, bridging the gap between memory and imagination, design and fine art. With her dynamic style and commitment to innovation, Linda Charles continues to captivate and inspire with every new collection.
