Studio Holland Art Public Art & Events

Public art & event commissions take a unique set of skills from an artist. I bring expertise and passion to artworks like multimedia, site-specific projects. One of my advantages to scalable art projects is the technique I apply which merges technology and dynamic vision
with traditional painting and drawing sensibilities. My track record proves I take a professional role and pride in project management that my clients love.

I promise to make this process enjoyable for you. Being an educator in the arts influences my skill to listen, discuss and interpret your organization's artwork.

"Thanks so much for working with us to produce a memorable experience for our event. We all know it got a little crazy at times with tight deadlines and multiple vendors involved- your ‘cool under pressure’ demeanor and hard work was commendable. The artwork and designs you produced for digital and physical display worked perfectly for us and our sponsors!" - Veronica O’Hern, Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs
