December's Featured Artist

Linda Geiger

I began my art career as a retail visual merchandiser, then as a graphic artist and owner of Bright Ideas Studio, established in 1984. After desktop publishing became popular and people began doing their own graphic design, I kept the business afloat by diversifying into fiber arts, utilizing my sewing and fabric manipulation training and talents to create soft-sculptured art dolls, art quilts, garments and accessories.

My art is inspired by my life’s dreams and experiences, and incorporates materials that have been “repurposed.” It is not uncommon to find scraps of hand-dyed fabric, vintage buttons, and even dryer lint (yes, dryer lint!) in my works. I love thrift shopping, collecting, and “dumpster diving” for unusual fabrics and embellishments to incorporate into my art dolls, fiber art, and one-of-a-kind accessories. In addition to doing my part to reduce my “carbon footprint” I donates a percentage of the sales of my art to several charities near and dear to her heart.

I enjoy sharing my talents with others by teaching workshops and classes in fiber art, sewing, fabric dyeing, silk painting and soft-sculptured dollmaking. I am a long-time member of the Brevard Cultural Alliance and have taught for several years with their Artist Residency Programs. I am also a member of the Ruth Funk Center for Textile Arts, Seams Unique Fiber Artists group and Art & Antique Studio & Gallery in the Eau Gallie Arts District. I create in my home studio as well as in shared studio space in Satellite Beach.

I have been a resident of Cocoa Beach since 1985, and have always been amazed at the talent that resides here.
