Mauritius

10 May

My father was one of 6 boys. They were known as ‘The Leong=Son Brothers’ and are well known on the Island. Growing up, they were the biggest influence on me and my cousins, we were brought up to value family and respect our elders. The island is a constant source of inspiration. The flowers, people, countryside, where do I start! Mauritius is multicultural and everyone seems to respect each others religions and views. The emotion connection is huge and I think anyone visiting feels the same - if they don’t , then they need to go back and ‘get in touch’ with their soul. The food, the people, the humility is overwhelming.

Linda Leong-Son

From her Suffolk studio in Bury St Edmunds, she creates inspiring and ever-evolving bodies of work that reflects both her natural talent and her instinctive connection to people and place.

Linda is a truly versatile and accomplished artist, working across pen, pencil, watercolour, oils and predominantly acrylic on canvas. Her work is rich with movement, colour and feeling, her vibrant energy becoming the thread that runs through every piece she creates.

Her art does more than sit quietly on a wall. It engages. It connects. It invites the viewer into a shared experience, often becoming part of their own story. Whether through original works or commissions, Linda brings a rare ability to translate emotion into something tangible and lasting.
