“Holly is a tremendous creative force. She excels in free thought art as well as commemorative decorations. From the moment i first saw Holly's creativity, i was extremely impressed. I have purchased some of her original art and proudly display it. I also asked her to reproduce a picture of my parents on a keep sake box. She did such a great job my children contacted Holly to thank her as it brought tears to their eyes, seeing such a beautiful painting of their grandparents. I highly recommend Holly to fulfill your creative needs. She has the uncanny ability to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary.” January 27, 2012

Last Christmas I recieved one of the greatest gifts I could ask for. It was a portrait painted by the "amazing" Holly Connors! The painting was of Johm Lennon and myself playing guitars together. The attention to detail was overwhelming, from the guitars we were playing to the clothes we were wearing and even down to my favorite necklace. The professionalism that was put into this work of art simply took my breath away! It is proudly hanging on my living room wall and is NEVER coming down! Holly Connors is the REAL DEAL!!

Each year I present my children with Christmas ornaments which memorialize their current interest. I was a bit stuck when my twin boys started skateboarding. I couldn't find anything interesting. It was right about that time Holly started posting pictures of her beautiful hand painted ornaments. I sent photos of my twin boys in action and asked if she could make ornaments from these shots. I wanted something a bit abstract, not picture perfect. What I received in return were two of the most beautiful ornaments I have ever purchased. While my children are still too young to truly appreciate them, I know they will be cherished for a very long time.

 

Of course shortly thereafter I asked her to paint a portrait from my favorite picture. The results, again, remarkable. I can't express in words how much these works of art truly mean. They are deeply personal and represent precious moments in time.

Holly Connors is an AMAZING artist! I am completely addicted to her Christmas Tree Ornaments! I currently have 3 and now consider myself a "collector" of them. So much so that I almost ripped my son's arm off when he swapped one out for something different after being coerced by a neighbor (who shall remain nameless) at our annual Yankee Swap at our Christmas Party. They are beautiful and each one is original and so unique. 

My first experience with Holly was when she was dodging bees at my pool painting the most amazing mural in my barzeebo. The mural includes myself, my husband and son as well as my 2 mini schnauzers. It is absolutely AWESOME. She captured our family to a "T" right down to the tattoos on my son's arm. We absolutely LOVE it and get compliments on it consistently. 

My next thing is to have her create a tattoo for me. I have no doubt she will capture my personality with her artistic ability better than I could do myself with words.  I read her story for the first time today. Gave me chills. It was nice to see where this amazing talent came from.

Holly Connors! I have to tell you that the portrait you have done of Babe and Artimus is stunning! I can't believe how well you have captured their expressions and body language, it's so lifelike and authentic it made me do a doubletake. . . . Absolutely great - you have an amazing talent. Thank you! XO. And thank you, Kim, for a great gift!

“Holly hand painted 5 Christmas ornaments for my family. The gifts created lots of emotions and tears during Christmas Eve dinner. Holly made my Christmas better than ever. She is amazing artist with huge talent. Her work is incredible. I could not think of anybody better to do business with. Thank You Holly.”

“For my infant nephew's baptism, I asked Holly to paint a picture of him on a keepsake box. He was asleep in my brother-in law's arms; a truly precious photo. Holly captured the essence of this photo, and my sister and brother-in law knew it. When I presented them the painted gift box they were floored. If Holly's work doesn't impress you, or someone else, check their pulse! She is passionate about her art, easy to work with, reasonably priced, and supremely talented. I'd hire her again any day."

Holly Connors is a very professional artist and business women.  I had Holly paint a portrait of my dogs on my sitting room wall.  It came out amazing.  The portrait looks exactly like them.  Holly creates works of art that are so personal to the costumer and unique.  I also had the pleasure of having an ornament painted for me.  Holly was so creative and the ornament brought me to tears.  She is wonderful at what she does and a joy to have working for you.

Holly Connors is a very gifted artist.  I have ordered several Christmas Ornaments from her.  Each one is as individual as the people they are intended for.  Holly likes to get some personal information about the people she is designing for, so that each item is very unique to that

person.  I particularly love the "Baby's First Christmas" ornament that she made for our newest addition to the family.  That is such a special day to commemorate and this child will have a family heirloom for his entire life to be handed down from generation to generation.


Also the "First Christmas in Your New Home" ornament.  It amazes me that such detail is possible on a fragile ornament.  I don't know how she can fit so much onto an ornament, but we had the pleasure of exploring the design at our Christmas get together and each person picked out a detail that was special to them.  Log cabins with smoke coming out of the chimney, people ice skating on a frozen pond, horse drawn sleighs traveling down a winding road through the country, decorated trees,snowmen, etc.........and that is all on one ornament.  


Each ornament is a Holly Connors original and is hand painted by Holly herself.  No mass producing here!!!  All it takes is to see on of these and hold it to see that it is truly a work of art!!

Great Results, Expert, Creative

If you are looking for something unique and hand-painted Holly at Blue Hasti is a great choice. She has provided hand-painted ornaments and other handpainted items to my store and I have alwys sold them quickly. I have also seen her mural work and it is incredible.  June 17, 2011

I just wanted to drop a note and tell you how much we all love the two bowls that you hand painted!!!  Parker, who is 4 and just started to learn to play soccer, absolutely loves the soccer scene detail and his own name painted right on his very own bowl.  His brother Noah, who is 3, also loves his football themed bowl with his own name on it.  These bowls certainly get used...I have to wash them right away after each meal because they use them at least three times each day!  The quality is great too...they haven't shown any wear whatsoever.


Thanks so much!

Great Results, High Integrity, Creative

“I first met Holly several years ago during a joint business venture. At one point we met in her home, where I first saw Holly's artwork. I remember clearly, walking up to a full rooms length mural, needing to touch it...thinking it was beautiful wallpaper. With a smile on her face she said, "I painted it...". I was amazed. Walking through her home, her gallery of artwork and pride, Holly exhibits a variety of styles, genre and moods in her work. I've seen; early american colonial, dark fantasy, portraits and children’s fantasy, to name a few. All done with a keen eye on detail and perspective. I marvel at Holly's talent as an artist and the imagination with which she paints. Knowing Holly both in business and as a friend; she is a dedicated, smart, persistant and diligent worker. I highly endorse and recommend Holly in any endeavor she chooses.”
