More than Flora

Art for the unapologetically bold!

Dana is not your typical artist. She's a creator, a teacher, a visionary, and above all, a

storyteller. Think equal parts Bob Ross and Richard Simmons, mixed with a straighttalking

Southerner and you’ll get a sense of her joyful and vibrant vibe. A breath of

fresh air in the art world. With a career decorated by collaborations with renowned

names like Nick Olsen, iconic brands like Bernhardt, and a memorable project for Chip

and Joanna Gaines, Dana's portfolio is a testament to her versatility and boundless

creativity.

Her values lie in genuine connections, believing that the essence of art is not just in its

creation but in the relationships it nurtures. Dana's holds a unique position in the art

world as both a creator and an innovator, working across multiple media and scale in

her work. She is celebrated for her bold, yet ultimately approachable, point of view.

You’ve never met someone quite like Dana before.

As an artist living in Thomasville, NC, she has been actively painting murals for over 20

years. Over the last few years, Dana has adopted encaustic wax as a preferred medium

and has been exploring more textured and three-dimensional elements in her artwork.

Dana has been influenced by Impressionism and the works of Georgia O’Keefe while

traveling to Europe, South America and New Zealand, she gathered ideas, techniques

and the qualities of many cultures to integrate into her highly unique artistic style. She

has created many works with a realistic or impressionistic flair and is currently

exploring the spontaneity of more abstract art.

"Boldness isn't just about the way I paint; it's in every choice I make to create this

beautiful life” —Dana Holliday
