I would like to nominate Holly Adams for the artist of the month! Holly is a talented and dedicated artist, I appreciate her commitment and perseverance- overcoming obstacles to attend our virtual class- Holly's calm cheerful presence (and her adorable dog) makes the online experience more enjoyable for everyone; she shares her work in progress and completed art in the We Care Studio Arts Facebook group, and always has constructive criticism for her peers.

We're super excited to introduce you to Holly, our August Artist-Client of the Month at We Care Arts! Holly is an amazing blend of tech wizardry and artistic flair. Her story is as colorful as her artwork, and we're thrilled to share it with you.

So, let's talk about Holly's background. She has a Bachelor's degree in Computer Information Systems. This means she's got serious chops when it comes to programming and website development. Her technical skills show just how talented she is at mixing analytical thinking with her creative side. And when she's not coding or designing websites, Holly is all about her true passion: creating art.

Holly's journey into art is like a kaleidoscope of colors. She loves working with watercolors, acrylic paints, felt, and alcohol markers. Her art style is heavily inspired by psychedelic pop art, especially the iconic vibe of "Yellow Submarine." You can really see this in her bold colors and whimsical designs that transport you to a world full of imagination and wonder. Plus, her creativity gets a big boost from her spouse, who’s always there cheering her on.

One of the things Holly absolutely loves about We Care Arts is the friendly and encouraging community. Here, she feels a real bond with fellow artist-clients and gets invaluable guidance from nurturing teachers. It's a positive space that helps her grow, try out new techniques, and brainstorm ideas with confidence. Holly will be collaborating with community artist, Mikee Huber for the Together We Care initiative.  Their work will be auctioned off at the Together We Care Gala in February of 2027.

Here's to Holly, a brilliant example of creativity and innovation, and to many more exciting artistic adventures ahead!
