My name is Linda Stolte and I live in Jefferson City (the capitol of) Missouri.

My husband and I are both artists; while he paints with oils on canvas, I am a totally digital person. Primarily I work in Photoshop but also use 3D programs to assist in my 2D creations. You can see some of our work at www.stoltestudio.com

I worked in artistic/creative fields all of my life and strictly in the visual arts for 20+ years, both as an artist and owner of an art gallery and custom framing business, until health problems forced me to give it up and stay home. Now I do freelance work such as full color illustrations and cover art for a local children's book author, design and maintain web sites for local organizations and individuals, and anything else I can do on the computer.

Aside from those things, I enjoy writing poetry, have dabbled into the writing of several hymns (music and lyrics), and have found a facination for macro photography of creatures and things of nature.

I am a wife, mother and grandmother, and I am pictured holding our furriest child, our precious little boy Sonny.
