Hollingsead open edition prints are available at specific sizes, for a limited amount of time. As a Colorado based impressionist artist, my multitude of works play with texture, layering, abstraction and spontaneity. From her serenity to her wrath, dramatic lighting and expressions of nature inspire my creations. Geometric mysteries are often collaged underneath rich layers of painterly strokes, where experimentation and rhythmic patterns will emerge. My hope is to reveal the connective force that underlies all things, inspiring others to find presence in nature and courage to express their own flow of creativity.
The Clutching Octopus
"The Clutching Octopus" by Brent Hollingsead. An acrylic/oil painting of a clutching octopus (originally 30"X40"), features torn canvas and other collaged details. In my studio, under the gaze of a solitary light, a world spills onto the canvas in a fusion of dreams and reality, a painting where the mystical lotus floats serenely above the cosmic dance of patterns and colors. The octopus, wise and gentle, emerges from the deep blues and purples, clutching some mysterious objects. This piece is my devotion to the unseen, a pilgrimage in pigment to the places of quiet grandeur and the silent stories that lie beneath the surface.

I am humbled by those who pause to experience my work, who allow their eyes to wander over the textured layers and who let their hearts feel the pulse of an ancient rhythm captured in modern form. To those who have followed my journey through art, know that each brushstroke carries the weight of my gratitude, painting not only a scene but the essence of connection between us. This canvas is an invitation to ponder, to lose oneself, and to find solace in the graceful contemplation that art provokes. It is my silent conversation and a shared whisper of beauty and truth that I am privileged to offer.
