Seattle artist Linda Beaumont creates public and private artworks within the Pacific Northwest. She is a versatile artist with a well established reputation for both studio and public art. She utilizes a number of materials in her work, including glass, stone, terrazzo and fiberglass.

Traveling Light, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, Seattle WA 2003. This interior art glass environment is part of the Port of Seattle's Terminal Expansion Program for Seatac airport. Seatac is a home to an impressive collection of contemporary and regional art. This piece consists of 85 floor to ceiling panels around an escalator entrance and separating the security area.

The work addresses the history of the lumber industry in the Northwest, with an ebullient use of wood grain patterns and images. Each panel is built of two sheets of 1/4” tempered float glass elaborately silkscreened with silver stain, air and hand brushed with vitreous enamel, and fired. Certain areas have been etched with a photo resist process to produce very fine half tones in the figures. The panels are assembled as a standard laminated safety glass panel, and installed by the site glazing contractor.

Seattle Biomedical Research Institute 2004, These two glass and metal outdoor structures border the entrance to the facility. The image depicts electron microscope photographs of the DNA sequencing of a rare disease, one studied at this new research facility in Seattle. The panels are 1” thick triple laminated panels, incorporating two layers of printed film.

This suspended piece in the building lobby connects exquisitely painted ‘lenses’ on a single steel cable. Each lens was formed from two pieces of slumped float glass and dichroic glass, which were painted and fired before being glued together to form convex lenses which reflect and transmit light. The pieces are free to spin on the cable.
