The way I produce any illustration is to not entirely plan the end result; there is always a little mystery, and I love the possibilities of what will appear on that blank paper once I've begun, watching the work develop organically and not being too constrained creates the best results.
I'm an artist and illustrator, currently residing in the medieval town of Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire.
I graduated from the University of Worcester with a degree in BA Illustration, and now work on a variety of commissions from clients, as well as personal projects.
I'm totally obsessed with all things fantasy, and love to inject that passion within my illustration work.
"Holly painted us a fabulous picture of our daughter. We liked it so much that we commissioned a further image as a Mother's Day gift. We now have a baby boy and so will soon be asking Holly to produce another portrait to complete the set. Working with her is an absolute pleasure and I always gets her to sign the work as I expect one day for her pieces to be sought-after"
"Our gorgeous family mutt just turned 10. Now that she’s getting a little grey around the gills we really wanted an image that captures her personality. The detail is magnificent, you can even see my wife’s reflection in Molly’s eye from the pic we took in our attempts to get the right expression. Our Molly on the wall is almost as loved as our Molly in the long grass and woods."
"I have purchased three paintings from Holly two of which were commissioned as gifts for my mum. They were exactly what I wanted and my mum absolutely loved them. Worth every penny."
"Holly painted a portrait of our three daughters as a birthday present from me to my husband. He says it was one of the best presents he has ever received. She did a fabulous job of capturing the girls' personalities - it is amazing that she was able to incorporate such great detail and realism in her painting. The portrait now hangs over our bed and brings a smile to both of our faces every time we walk into our bedroom! Thank you Holly!"
