Holly Allen

As a child growing up in the mountains of Appalachia, Holly spent her childhood immersed in the wonders of nature. She and her father roamed through fields and forests, gathering treasures like pinecones, feathers, and wildflowers. These experiences ignited a passion within her for capturing the natural world through art.

Despite pursuing a degree in science, painting remained a constant in her life's journey. Now settled in Tennessee with her husband and three feline companions, Holly is a proud mother of two grown children.

With a studio nestled in her home and the breathtaking landscapes of woods and mountains at her doorstep, Holly finds ceaseless inspiration in her surroundings. Whether she's trekking through the wilderness, gliding across serene waters in her kayak, or simply reveling in quiet observation, she delights in translating the beauty of nature onto canvas.
