Featured Artist Series

This is the first in a series of posts featuring all the talented artists we have at Hollyhocks, LLC. We have a wide range of all handmade items and continue to add new artists. Enjoy!

This week ,Hollyhocks, LLC is happy to feature local artist Kathy. Kathy is a painter, photographer, and great at repurposing everyday items into things of beauty! Here is a small sample of what she has. If you would like to see more, stop by the store and visit our "Featured Artists Section".

This beautiful, serene painting would be at home just about anywhere. It's a smaller size  (10x10?) and would fill that small space you've been trying to decorate.
How about a totally unique windchime? This beauty and others like it have been made using crystal beads, fishing line and recycled flatware.Yes, you read that correctly, flatware! Sometimes she will incorporate a glass cup into the design. They are really pretty and sound good too.














This vibrant piece is one of many prints Kathy has at the store. It happens to be a personal favorite of mine! The subjects of her prints ranges from whimsical  fairies, land and garden scapes, to serene water views.

Next is this adorable "Totem" made from new and old dishes and knick knacks. This one is lovely shades of blue and has a girl on top holding a wreath. These are great for holding hors doeuvres, cookies,jewelry, or can be used as a decorative piece in your garden.  They vary in size depending on the size of the pieces used to construct it.

Kathy also has a nice selection of notecards with a wide range of subjects. Pictured here are just a couple. They come complete with envelopes and are even suitable for framing. Some, such as the fairy are also available as prints or original paintings.
Besides being at Hollyhocks, Kathy can also be found at the Burlington Artists League  and   Tyler D Studios.
She also has her work displayed at several businesses in local and surrounding communities including the Paramount Theater in Burlington.
I hope you enjoyed this first feature of  the talent we have at Hollyhocks, LLC! I hope you will come back as I post a new feature each week with a new artist.
