Follow me on Instagram for the latest on what is happening in my studio and daily inspirations.

When you look at a piece of art you will most likely have an opinion or reaction to it. Recently I had to describe my style of artwork using one word, which was challenging for me.
What word comes to your mind when you see this painting?

“I’ll never be ready if I keep waiting to be...”- Leanne Ford

I used to think I could not be a real artist as I did not have the proper space in my home to paint & make a big mess. I thought one day I’ll have a little studio or a room I can devote to all of my supplies.
Fast forward to today & the reality is I make most of my art that I share with you at our dining table or in the basement at our old dining table. There’s not great light down there but I make it work.
If I was still waiting for that perfect moment can you imagine how dissatisfied I would be with myself. Jealous that others were perusing their dreams & I was just waiting.
Make things happen for yourself, you’ve got nothing to lose.

March 2016 this photo was taken. I was new to Instagram and had met all of these inspiring women artists out of town for lunch.
Today we are still supporting one another and chasing our dreams. If you are born to create than you must find the time to do so.
Take a minute and check out their work 👏👏👏@melissamaryjenkinsart @little_lief_creative @laurafedorowicz

“Destroy the idea that you have to be constantly working or grinding in order to be successful. Embrace the concept that rest, recovery, reflection are essential parts of the progress towards a successful and happy life.” -Zach Galifianakis

Fours collages fill this colourful space. Thanks so much for sharing @amandalouiseinteriors

I love this wall, I do not like anything that tastes like Pumpkin. You just learned something new about me.
Happy Thanksgiving weekend friends!🍂

I’m excited to share that a new collection of collages is in the works that will be available through @rugandweave in Guelph Ontario.
I’m using some of the stunning textiles they have sourced & I think you are going to like them.👌
Now the fun part begins... gluing everything down.

I didn’t have a composition in mind when I started to paint this. Often I’ll do a quick sketch and go from there. I love how it turned out.

Hi I’m Holly, I’m doing my best to carve out time for art and a creative life, while raising a family. I gather inspiration from so many people on IG and wanted to share the words of my friend @lisamclindenart “Success equates to remaining authentic, transparent, and real, all the while getting to do what I love every single day.”
I feel exactly the same Lisa.
I’m thankful for every opportunity that is coming my way and for my co-workers who never say no when I ask them to take my photo at work.

“This is the season she will make beautiful things. Not perfect things but honest things that speak to who she is and who she is called to be.” -Morgan Harper Nichols

These words caught my attention, I thought maybe you needed to read them as well.
