Linda Fisher has spent her creative career immersed in art forms ranging from textiles to floral design to dimensional art. “When I saw the effect of light flowing through paper, I became immediately interested in creating something that could add a sense of peace and energy”. Fisher seeks out different handmade papers-finding the ones that really speak to her when put against the light. She enjoys bringing the most unique pieces together to create a fusion of light and color.

Having an avid fisherman for a husband has been instrumental for Fisher in portraying an accurate reflection of fish. “I am more interested in the impressionistic feel of these pieces. I am not trying to replicate a fish, but provide a representation of its spirit and essence.” By using this impressionistic feel, Fisher has found that fishing enthusiasts love the lamps for the memories they invoke.

Originally from California, Fisher has spent the last twenty-five years in Colorado, and has recently relocated to Utah to be near her children. Living here has given Fisher the ability to work, fish, and make lamps in the shadow of the great Mount Timpanogos.
