About

Hello and welcome to my website. My name is Linda Kemshall and I’m a painter, quiltmaker, author and teacher.

I’ve been drawing and painting all my life. I’m passionate about watercolour but also enjoy acrylics, print and mixed media. Oh - and I should also mention I love keeping sketchbooks, altering books and generally making art in its many different forms!

After gaining the Medal of Excellence for my City & Guilds Patchwork and Quilting Diploma I went on to teach design and stitched textiles both in the UK, Europe and North America. I have exhibited my quilts all over the world and been fortunate to win a number of awards both here in the UK and in Europe. I was awarded a Licentiateship of City and Guilds London for services to training.

I’ve been teaching creative online classes with my daughter Laura for over twenty years. You can find all the videos we have on offer here at designmatters and you can read all about us in the free newsletter that we send out every week. If you like what we do you might be tempted to sign up for all our additional content. We post around three times a week about our work, our inspiration and generally what’s happening in our world.

I hope you’ll enjoy visiting my site and will come back often!
