About The Artist: Holly Cannon

After 20+ years and a twist of fate, Holly rediscovered her paintbrush while recuperating from hip replacement surgery. Holly instantly found her happy place again. Her love for art and creating it comes from her faith and knowing that God has given her a great talent that she loves sharing with the world.

A few years ago, Holly moved to Martin County and found the most wonderful art teacher in the world, Brenda Leigh. Brenda helps Holly get unstuck through almost all of her paintings.

Holly loves painting wildlife of any kind, large and small. She discovered her favorite medium, pastels, while attending a weekend workshop with her art mentor, Lesley Harrison, in Montana. Holly adores the richness and realism she can achieve with this medium.

Every summer, Holly has the privilege of staying north of Seattle with her daughter who is a naturalist on a whale watching boat. Both mother and daughter share a passion for marine mammals and Holly, also an avid photographer, continues to grow her “to be painted” folder from these trips.
