This beautiful painting is 26 x 21 inches and is professionally framed.   This is an original oil painting, not a print!

Kate Holmes graduated from Brown University in 1986.  She is represented by Winn Devon for open edition art publishing.  Her prints are offered in the Cold Water Creek catalog.  Her work is part of the Trader Joe's gourmet greeting card line.  Kate loves it that art lovers who love animals collect her work.  She feels really lucky to have wonderful friends and family and gives thanks every day. 

Kate says:

Wake up in the morning, one eye opens. What does it mean to get out of bed, start the day?

As I look around and see challenges everywhere, global concerns that seem almost overwhelming, I am distinctly aware of inspiring forces too. I see people of all kinds actively helping in some way, working towards real change.

I want to be part of that. I need to be part of that. To know I am contributing, too - so I can greet each morning with enthusiasm.

I love and respect animals. My art reflects and celebrates our connection to all creatures, both wild and mild. I feel it is vital that we honor and protect them. After all, we share our lives and this earth together.

That is "why" together we can donate 15% of every print sale to a select animal advocacy organization.
