About the Artist

Hello! My name is Linda Cassella, artist and author. Welcome to my website and thank you for your interest in my work.

“Artist” is a new way to describe myself. While I have always been interested in drawing, I basically gave up after receiving negative comments from a high school teacher. I went on to college and graduated from Cleveland State University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Education. I was an elementary teacher for four years before moving to Washington and starting a family. In 1984, I began a thirty year career with the US Postal Service. We bought property in the woods and built ourselves a log cabin. Needless to say, family and career was my priority and art was an occasional leisure activity.

About the Book

As mother eagle is sitting on her nest high up in a tree, the reader wonders what she is looking for? She asks for help from others. Will she get the answer she seeks? This is a sweet story of coming home and what is waiting there.

About the Author

As a mother and grandmother, the author has promoted early learning through reading. In 2020, she renewed her interest in acrylic painting. During the pandemic, she painted forty portraits, including animals and pets. When her grandson started kindergarten online, she thought it would be interesting to have him help her come up with a story for these animals. This book is the result.

I would definitely use her professional skills again.”
