Holly Aloha Jaynes
Multi-Media Artist

“And everywhere paintings and photographs by Holly Jaynes, showing an abundance of color, light and shapes in her photograph, her omnipresence represented in sculpture, painting, collage, and photography, of eerily evocative P'town (Provincetown, MA) settings and of people.”
- Rudi Kikel, Bay Windows, Boston MA

I cannot be easily placed in any category. Over time I have become a multi dimensional artist of various art forms. I am a plein air paintera French term used by painters for painting out of doors, like the French Impressionists of light and color which is the essence of my work. I am inspired to continuously learn to see the constant metamorphous in color differences between the light and shadow areas. Light and color are just as important in my photography as well as abstract painting. I combine my curiosity and imagination to create three dimensional assemblagea sculpture or collage consisting of an arrangement of miscellaneous objects such as scraps of metal, cloth, paper, rope, etc. using found objects, as well as beaded jewelry with unusual beads and crystals, and hand-paint fanciful furniture, clothing and t-shirts.

Sharing my artistic abilities is a way of life; guiding children & their spontaneity & discovery of self, adults searching for new creative endeavors, and the empowerment of seniors, making art to remember their past or images of the present. The evolution of my art is like life, an ongoing process.
