MENLO PARK, Calif. -- The Portola Art Gallery presents “In a Classical Mood,” a collection of oil still life paintings by Linda Salter.

Salter enjoys painting a variety of subjects across an array of mediums; but when it comes to still life paintings, she is drawn to oils. She explains: “I love to create the sense of a classical still life painting, and no medium can do this like oils. Whether using vivid colors or a limited palette, I’m excited by the play of light and shadow that I can achieve in an oil painting done in a classical style.”

Linda Salter works primarily in pastels and oils and has exhibited and received awards at community and college art shows; she has also exhibited solo at Avenue 25 Gallery in San Mateo and Esalen Institute in Big Sur.

Salter spent more than three decades as an instructor and administrator in California colleges, serving as president of Skyline College in San Bruno and chancellor of West Valley-Mission Community College District in Santa Clara County. Since retiring as chancellor more than a decade ago, Linda has studied with a number of artists who teach at local colleges, as well as at Gage Academy in Seattle, Scottsdale Artists’ School, and classical ateliers in the Bay Area.
