Michaela Linda Sotillo's approach to fine arts is fresh, it is new, and it works. Her paintings are displayed throughout the works by prominent agencies, galleries, and corporations. The extremely prolific Sotillo is always experimenting with inventive printing techniques, and her styles are remarkably varied, indication a duality about the artist.

Sotillo's contemporary side exhibits a concise understanding of design, through her manipulation of contrast, line and space. Her mature use of color and harmonious choices in composition make for sophisticated abstracts that capture the attention of collector and critics alike. Sotillo minimalistically chooses to sign her contemporary works just, "LINDA". "It's in keeping with the territory", she says, smiling.
