Marcia Holmes: It’s the total freedom to intuitively express and create with dynamic color, a freshness that embodies my paintings. Collectors frequent comments at my blockbuster “Verdant Spaces” Solo Show at Degas Gallery, were of compelling color and design, emotive rhythm and energy with visible texture, mark making, and a connectivity to identifiable elements and spaces to my works, whether large scale landscape or abstract oil and pastel paintings. Primarily a studio painter, I’m painting more frequently en plein air and relishing a traveler’s wanderlust!

I’m announcing a new plein air workshop “Paint the Marshes-South Carolina Pastel
Workshop”, Nov. 8-10, 2024, Magnolia Island at Bull Point, (15 min. from Beaufort, SC)
