MEET THE ARTIST
The Artist Lens
“Discovering the wonder in the everyday world leads to a deeper understanding of its significance. Through the artistic perspective, we unveil the hidden beauty that exists in even the most ordinary things.”
Hello, I'm Holli, artist, wife, mom of 3 fun, creative kiddos and one sweet doodle pup.
As an artist, I'm drawn to multiple themes of nature and everyday life such as landscapes, botanicals, birds, still life and portraits. Exploring these subjects at times in realistic interpretations or through an abstract perspective gives my creative work freedom to flow purely. Though my subjects and techniques are often shifting I continually return to the importance of finding joy and interest in the overlooked, divine beauty all around us. Whether its the way a soft watercolor line can create boldness through composition or the play of movement by the proximity of shapes, texture and tone my creative practice drives me to be open and perceptive. I paint and create to celebrate the joys of seeing the unique revealed from the ordinary.
The name, Herald Studio reflects this endeavor of bringing the good news of joy, hope and beauty but above all to glorify the ultimate source of every true thing, our Creator.
The Journey
“The ability to create and express myself was ignited and indulged in my free-range upbringing.”
Growing up in the lush woodlands of Western Pennsylvania I was always encouraged to explore the beauty outside. This is where endlessly creativity and connection with nature became deeply rooted in my creative journey. Sketchbooks and art supplies directed my interests as I discovered a pure love of making art. Watching my imagination flow from hand, unfolding onto paper felt like magic into another realm where my purpose to create was realized.
A drive to hone my artistic skills lead to a formal education and career in Graphic Design. This experience offered such an impact on my understanding of the power visual arts have to enrich and elevate our daily lives in truly amazing ways.
Becoming a Mom is when my passion to adorn our home with art, bringing beauty and meaning into our world, began a shift in my artistic direction. The importance of the daily dwelling, where our most meaningful moments take place, shaped the focus of my work, back to the practice of my first love - creating studio art.
The free flow of painting with brush in hand and experimenting with different mediums and subjects guides my process. This is where you'll find me now, in my home studio or outdoors, creating original pieces that bring joy, connection and inspiration from our daily life.
“I truly hope you connect with my work and it brings you blessing!”
