Linda Holt
"Small Abstract #132" Expressionist White, Red, Purple, Blue, Turquoise Yellow

2020

About the Item

"Small Abstract #132," Oil on Canvas, 8 x 8 Inches, is a brilliantly colored, gorgeous and lush abstraction, very expressionist and fluid in style in shades of white, red, purple, blue, turquoise and yellow. Holt has an exquisite sense of color and a masterful touch, these works shimmer and sparkle. There are numerous related works from this series in this 8 x 8 inch size, so groupings are also a possibility for installations. The artist also considers them as studies for larger paintings that can be commissioned in any size and is presently at work on a series of 30" x 30" and 36" x 36" canvases inspired by some of these smaller paintings. The paint surface is heavy impasto. Linda Holt was raised in Philadelphia and lived in England, Alabama and Virginia before attending the Paris American High School and graduating from Skidmore College with a BS in fine art in 1970. She received an MFA in Painting from the University of Pennsylvania where she studied with Neil Welliver. Holt’s paintings have been seen in 19 one-person exhibitions, over 50 group exhibitions, and in addition to numerous private collections, Holt’s paintings are included in many public collections including the Wichita Center for the Arts, Wellington Management, the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, Fidelity Investments, Mass General Hospital, and the Seaport and Reef Hotels. Selected reviews include articles in “The Boston Globe,” “Art New England,” and the “Houston Chronicle.” Holt was awarded the Nathaniel Saltonstall Purchase Prize in Drawing, has been a Trustee and Visiting Artist at Montserrat College, a Guest Critic at FIT in New York, and a Lecturer at the University of Pennsylvania. The artist resides in Boston and has been represented by the Beth Urdang Gallery since 1995.
