Linda Jamieson was born and spent her childhood in Norfolk. She was trained at St. Martins School of Art and studied further at Heatherley's and with Francis Pratt in France and Norfolk. She worked for many years in the field of textile design in London, France and Italy, and also as a consultant for interior design. After returning to painting she now divides her time between her studios in Norfolk and London.

 Landscape has been the focus of her practice for many years. The painting process mimics the action of tidal forces on the fragile coast where Linda lives and works.
