Holly Minnich – Mixed Media Artist

Holly Minnich

I call myself an artist of many colors – not just because I love color but I love many forms of art. My two main focuses are pottery and mixed media. My husband and I have a home pottery studio and enjoy creating things in clay while being together. I’d call myself more of a whimsical potter who enjoys sculpting. My mixed media takes my creativity in another direction of discovery. I love making art papers while using paint and ink and other art products to achieve something pleasing and yet unusual.
My husband, Kirt, and I are honored to be the featured artists in the Broadway Gallery in Longview for the month of March

My framed tiles are an art form I had not seen but wanted to pursue. The bas relief style of texture is something I incorporate into most of my work and has become somewhat of a trademark. There is no singular style to what I build so each piece is unique.
