“Holly’s Dream” is a narrative story of the swan traveling to meet the woman in the woods. One of my favorite parts is that of the swan shown moving, traveling in time through the painting- each time getting closer to the woman.
When I view her work I always feel as if I have stepped into the middle of an epic dream.
Holly Wilson has exhibited her intimate bronze sculptures and her mixed media encaustic relief sculptures nationally. Wilson’s figures draw both from real life and legends of her Delaware and Cherokee background.
Wow- I LOVE this painting! If it was a dream, it would be one of those that haunts you until you can figure out the message it wants to convey. Just fantastic!
What a wonderful thing to incorporate into your life and spirit!
Thanks for visiting Sharmon and Margaret. I really love this piece too, so magical!
