Linda Le Kinff (b.1949) is a French- Brazilian artist best known for her colorful prints. She started her career as a painter at the age of 20. Le Kinff lived and worked in Italy for twelve years learning the ancient techniques taught by masters in Florence and Livorno. She began creating serigraphs in the mid 1980`s and uses this technique exclusively in the creation of her original graphic works. Le Kinff also expresses herself through watercolors, and recently through collage. Her subjects are extremely diverse, and include musical scenes, poetic interpretations of people caught in an intimate moment of their lives, and couples elegantly dressed, out for a night on the town.
