Pastel artist to share experiences at museum event
Soft pastels with Linda V. Campbell will be showcased at tonight’s Third Thursday at the Museum presentation in the Segerblom Theatre inside the Boulder City/Hoover Dam Museum. It will begin at 6 p.m.
Campbell, an artist in residence at Red Rock National Conservation Area, said she likes the “velvety texture” of pastels, which allow her to capture the colors and essence of her subject quickly, especially when working outdoors because light conditions change rapidly.
A native of Montreal, Campbell earned a degree at the Museum of Fine Arts Academy in Montreal before spending more than 10 years working for an art and design studio in Toronto.
After moving to the United States, she began working as an interior designer.
