A note to Groups wanting to use my art: I no longer allow groups to use my work. I am searching for a good company to license my art to. Please understand it will be awhile before I find and sign with a company, because of my sickness due to pregnancy.


Do you accept commissioned art ?

Rarely do I accept commission art, because of the creative constraints. It all depends on the project.

If I buy Holly's original art, can I make prints of them ?

No, buying artwork does not mean that you are buying the rights or own the rights to that piece and it does not mean that you can reproduce it. All of my art is registered at the Copy Right Office located in D.C. at the Library of Congress. I register my work in batches for $45.00 before I release them to the public.

Sorry, but no.

Can I make stationeries, note cards, or etc. of Holly's art for my own personal use?

Sorry, but no. Holly has been getting more and more request from customers and PSP groups to use her art to make note cards, stationeries, etc. ( for there own personal use), because they don't have the wall space or room for anymore art. Because of this Holly will be bringing out new products for her customers. Please join her Update List to be updated on these new products.

How do your prints come ?

Prints come acid-free and come with acid-free backing in a clear acid-free plastic sleeve. She uses a hp deskjet 5650 with age resist inks to reproduce some of her prints. Other prints are reproduced at Fairmont Printing Company. Artist proofs and limited edition prints come with a certificate of authenticity.

Prints have a white border around them (about a half inch on all four sides) so they can be measured and cut to fit a 8 x 10 frame if you prefer not to matt your prints.

Note, due to not having control over your lighting condition and where you hang your artwork in your home or business, Holly can not guarantee prints will not fade over time, but with proper display and UV filter glass prints will last for many years.


Will you tell me more about your originals ?

 Artwork is completed on one of the following; acid-free watercolor paper, acid-free vellum, acid-free stonehenge paper. Medias that she uses are; Prisma Colored Pencils (main media), Watercolors, Acrylics, Pen and ink, Airbrush, and Graphite. It takes anywhere from one day to several weeks to complete a piece of artwork.

How do you come up with your ideas ?

Well where should I start first. Hmm. I get a lot of my ideas from scriptures in the bible. That might sound strange to some people, but I am a Christian. Sometimes I come up with a idea and do a series baste on that one idea. For example. I might come up with a red angel and decide to do a whole series of colors, such as blue angel, purple angel, etc. You can always incorporate your hobbies or interest in your drawings, For example, you might enjoy ice skating. You could draw a angel or fairy ice skating.

Does music help your creative process ?

Yes ! I listen to different types of Christian music, depending on the project I'm working on. I listen to Southern Gospel and Gospel Bluegrass when I'm working on my Hillbilly Fairies TM. I listen to Southern Gospel, Contemporary Christian Music, Southern Christian Rock, and Christian Rock when I draw my angels and fine art. I never listen to secular music. Some of my favorite singers and groups are;  Rebecca Saint James, Plumb, The Original Hinsins, Kingsmen, The Issacs, The Hoppers,  Third Day, Out of Eden, Zoe Girl, Barlow Girl, Super Chick, MaryMary, Rachael Lampa, Fly Leaf, Pillar, News Boys, Jars of Clay, Toby Mac/DC Talk, Inhabited, Spoken, and the list goes on ...

Do you have any other talents ?

Yes, I am very blessed to be able to sing for the glory of God. My favorite music out of any kind of music, is old church hymns. My mother and I sometimes are invited to churches and will sing, and my brother will preach. We do not sing for money, and my brother does not preach for money. We believe that the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and our singing are our ministries, and that salvation is free to who ever will accept it.

What is your faith ?

Christian is my faith. I believe in the old and new testaments. I consider myself non-denominational and my belief's lean more towards the Apostolic belief. I  live, breath, and my art is about Jesus. To most people I would be considered a fanatic, but I feel I can't get fanatical enough about Jesus. I strive to get closer to God everyday.

Do you sale wholesale your work out to companies ?

No I no longer wholesale my art.


I have more questions, can I contact you ?

Yes, you can e-mail:
