Linda Gossett
Linda Gossett
Linda has been a resident and studio artist at the Chicken Farm since 2007. After many years of mostly functional wares, Linda leans toward the sculptural side of clay now. While using white earthenware, the sun-baked colors of the west Texas environs find their way onto her incised surfaces in veils of glaze. Some say that a quirky sense of humor shows in Linda's work. She has wholesaled to Neiman Marcus and other boutique galleries and produced corporate commissions for nearly 20 years.
