16 x 16 mixed media abstract painting on gallery wrapped canvas

Holly Mabry Poole is a New Orleans native and a 13-year graduate of Metairie Park Country Day School.  She has attended the University of Mississippi and is a graduate of Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge.  She received her master’s degree in Speech and Language Pathology from Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center. Holly is currently employed as a full-time speech therapist for affiliated rehab, but she also enjoys painting on the side. 

 Holly has always had a lifelong passion for painting and interior design.  She is a contributor to the New Orleans Children’s Museum, the Red Cross on behalf of the Tuscaloosa, Alabama’s tornado victims, the Young Friends of St. Andrews village, the Legacy Foundation, the Children’s hospital, the Better than Ezra foundation, and various other local charities.  Holly believes that her creative gift is something that cannot only be used as a passionate career but a way to give back to her community as well.

 As a self-taught artist, Holly draws inspiration from the natural environment and the love and support from her family and friends.  Each layer of her designs portrays Holly’s optimistic outlook on life through the use of diverse textures, shapes, and colors.  Her signature gold leaf and bold gold stripes on the side of each painting makes each piece original.  

“Art is my way of escaping the craziness of life and getting zoned into my passion of painting.”

“I want each piece of my artwork to mean something to its owner as it does to me.”
