Gorgeous original modern art makes a fantastic magical impression. The landscape is handled in a confident, clean graphic minimalistic style with high eye appeal made even more interesting by virtue of the triptych! The side panels measure 13x24". The narrow middle panel measures 9x24". Each of 3 frames bear the Gina Holt Indicia on verso, and are heavy; of the highest gallery quality. This is a rare chance to own rare early work by a well-esteemed working, showing, current West Cost artist. Her current pieces sell for $1500. and up +/-.
About the Artist:
Originally from New York, Gina Holt currently resides in the Pacific Northwest, where she works from her home studio.
Born in 1959, Gina says that she inherited her creativity from her father, a dancer, and her mother, an artist. As a child she loved to spend her spare time drawing, painting and making up imaginary characters for the stories she illustrated. Gina received a BA in art from the University of Oregon, where she focused on printmaking, illustration and painting. After graduating, she augmented her creative abilities by taking classes in ceramic hand-building at Pottery Northwest. Gina has since experienced an unending joy of working with clay, as this medium allows her to transform the 2-d media she is so familiar with into virtual 3-d canvases that simultaneously employ her drawing, sculpting and painting skills.
Gina’s most recent works are colorful botanical - inspired sculptures that can either stand alone or hang on the wall. Inspirations for these life-like creations begin with her study of intricate nature photos and live plants from the garden. Gina’s eye-catching works emerge as she molds
complexity, light and shadow into the clay. The addition of multiple layers of combined glazes and textures enhance and complete each unique work of art. Gina then signs, numbers, and writes on the back of each botanical piece a sentimental meaning that primarily derives from Victorian era- floral dictionaries, making each and every sculpture a thoughtful experience.
Gina began selling her pieces in 1991 through gift galleries and juried shows. Her devoted groupies know well that her works in clay started as floral-themed mirrors and architectural-style clocks. A number of her followers are thrilled to have more than a handful of these collectors’ items gracing the walls of their homes.
There is an optimism and delightful cheerfulness to Gina's work whose art has gained much attention across the United States and beyond. Last photo shows the artist herself.
