Madison artist Tom Linfield spent a large part of his life living in Europe, sketching stone circles and cairns, visiting cathedrals, and living in a medieval village called Cordes in the south of France. He is fascinated by the beauty and potency of these ancient, sacred stone formations, and their imagery continues to inform his work. In recent years he has also moved into mosaic work, oil pastels of locally grown food, and sculptures and paintings inspired by specific books. Linfield is a founding member of the arts collaborative artsTRIBE, has served on the board of Madison Area Open Art Studios, and is vice president of grantmaking and community initiatives for the Madison Community Foundation.
