Linda Lang is an internationally acclaimed expedition and climate change artist whose paintings are based on the knowledge she gained from her Inuit friends, scientists and over a dozen expeditions to the Polar Regions. She first travelled to the Arctic in 2002 with her mentor Doris McCarthy. She has led, and continues to lead expeditions, and has exhibited throughout Canada (including the Arctic), United States, and Russia.

Her passion for the Arctic and the issue of climate change is powerfully depicted in her art and in her life activities. Linda is an elected Signature Member of Artists for Conservation, former Art Liaison for International Polar Year, and founder of Polar Artists Group and the Arctic Quest 2006 project. She represented polar artists at the launch of International Polar Year in Paris, France in 2007, participated in the Circumpolar Artists Round Table discussions at the United Nations Office in Geneva, and in 2008 and 2009, she represented Canada at the Northern Lights Festival in the Russian Arctic.

Among other distinctions, Linda’s painting titled “Follow Your Dreams” was presented to Ontario’s Lieutenant Governor, the Hon. James Bartleman in 2006 by the Toronto District Catholic School Board.
