I, of course, am mostly drawn to her goddess paintings.
I love the bold colours, the delicate hands, the graceful postures ....
Holly paints in acrylics on canvas or watercolor paper. She loves detail and patterning, which is obvious in her art.
She likes the singer Loreena McKennitt, and I must say that her art fits the music of Loreena very well! It has the same dreamlike, soft and peaceful atmosphere.
Her work has been published by several publishers over the years, and she is currently working on her new children's book illustrations.
If you want to see more of her work, you can visit her website, her Facebook and her Etsyshop. Lots more to see there! Hope you enjoyed this artist's work as much as I do!
Meanwhile, I have had my first sale in my Etsyshop!! Woohoo! You might be confused, because I had one sale already, but that was just my hubby who bought a card of me because I wanted to know how it worked exactly and what kind of emails the buyer and the seller (aka me☺) would get. So that was not a "real" sale, but more like fieldwork ;-)
But now I've had my first real sale and it was so exciting! Hope many more will follow!
Which brings me to my big Etsy-promotion-plan. I've decided to put up my Linkylist somewhere next week, and the whole month of April people can sign up to be a part of it. And in the month of May everbody who signed up will be promoting 4 different shops, and will be promoted on 4 different blogs (maybe 5, since May has almost 5 weeks ....). Details will follow so keep an eye out for them.
This way people who have an inactive shop at the moment will also be able to participate. I'm looking forward to this, it should be fun!
I'll finish with another doodle. I hope during the Easter holidays I will find the peace and quiet again to make some more of these. Now I only work on them when I'm doing my shift at the art gallery, which is only one day a month.
That's it for now! Thanks so much for visiting. I'll be back on Friday with (hopefully) a finished painting. I'll definitely start earlier than last week ☺
hugs ♥ ♥ ♥
