Linda Charles trained in textiles and fashion at university, a foundation that continues to define her distinctive artistic language today. Her work is instantly recognisable through its rich texture, layered composition, and confident use of mixed media, including gold and silver leaf, as well as intricate patterning.

Her approach blends material experimentation with strong visual storytelling. Each piece is designed to engage both intellectually and emotionally, reflecting the same energy and connection she experiences during the creative process.

One of her most celebrated bodies of work, the Pulp Re-imagined series, demonstrates her versatility and imagination. Inspired by vintage pulp paperback covers from the 1940s–60s, she fuses these visual narratives with iconic music culture—songs, lyrics, and legendary artists. The result is a distinctive dialogue between sound and image.
