Hollie DeFrancisco hails from the eastern shores of Massachusetts where her creative journey
began. As a young girl her father showed her the wonders of drawing, pulling out carbon sheets and fantasy reference images, and that is where her passion bloomed. Van Gogh said drawing is the first step in painting and for her it was the first step in becoming a painter.
In 2010 Hollie graduated from Jacksonville University with a Bachelors in Fine Arts where her
professor honed her chaotic passion into polished craft. She has created many works, some the world will never see, armed with self doubt, persistence and a desire to create.
It is her pleasure to be able to release interpretations of nature and beauty into the public eye.
Her visual works enable the viewer to perceive the beauty we are surrounded with, both mundane and brilliant, in an entirely new light. It is her aim to bring wonder to the universe.
