Linda K. Powell, was one of the nation's most beloved wildlife and nature illustrators. Linda passed away in September 2004. She rarely sold her originals to clients or in a gallery because she licensed her illustrations rather than sell them. This left her in possession of almost all of her original art. This beautifully detailed art has attracted many fans over her 35-plus years as an illustrator.
Some of Linda's high-profile clients have included the following...

Greeting Card Companies:
American Greetings (including her own line of Cloverleaf Lane™ products, figurines and plates)
Current (including Current Critters™)
Leanin' Tree

Needleart Companies:
Dimensions
Sunset

Other:
National Wildlife Federation and their Ranger Rick Magazine
Ducks Unlimited (stamps for United States Post Office)
American Humane Society
Unicover Corporation (collectable stamps and postcards)
Collectible Plates for Royal Cornwall and the Calhoun Collector's Society
The Walt Disney Company (Linda was asked to redraw the "101 Dalmatians" as a style guide for Disney
merchandising artists when they released their live-action version of the movie. The character art needed to look more
realistic than the original flat-graphic cartoon art.)

Books she has illustrated:
An American Bestiary by Jack Schaefer
Biography of a Desert Bighorn by Barbara Steiner
Biography of a Kangaroo Rat by Barbara Steiner
Biography of a Kangaroo by Eleanor Coerr
The Rabbit is Next (Little Golden Book)
Scat! Scat! by Sally Francis
