L. Carter Holman

 

Renowned artist, Linda Carter Holman, brings a
vibrantly rich world to life through a variety of
artistic media.

From her birth in a small town in Oklahoma, to
her childhood in Venezuela, through her adult
life spent in a variety of locations in the
Southwest and California, Linda Carter Holman
has been inspired by places both actual and
imaginary. At about the age of 20, she began
to explore her artistic nature through painting.
Holman also works in ceramics, print making
and bronze sculpture. She taught herself how to
use these media to express her fervent
imagination, and she became well known as a
Naive-Sophisticate artist.

Her gift for creating characters in settings that
celebrate life is evident in all phases of her
painting. Observing a painting by Carter
Holman is like opening the pages of a good
book filled with colorful characters and
descriptive narrative. A master storyteller,
Carter Holman draws on her life experience
and vivid imagination to create canvases
that speak of abundance, harmony, good
spirits. While the flowing and seemingly
innocent nature of Holman's work is what
draws the viewer into her colorful world, it is
her sense of humor and talent for detail that
bring the viewer back into her paintings again
and again. In her works, the viewer senses an
excitement for life. Primarily a painter of women
-- she is well known for her Latin Ladies
and Cowgirls.

Linda can take a simple act or seemingly
mundane task and make it interesting. A cow
grazing, a squirrel gathering nuts, or a beautiful
young woman reading a book, evoke special
feelings and bring new meaning to these
actions. Lush and beautiful, her paintings invite
one to take part in a fanciful, two-dimensional
dance. her works are not only aesthetically
pleasing, but they also challenge the viewer to
create new and vivid perspectives on life.

"I fill the canvas as life is full and worth living,"
Linda says, "Here on the canvas people live a
rich existence, rich in the sense that they can
make the best of what there is."

"I like to think of my women as the Quan Yins of
the west. Compassionate. Comprising both the
masculine and feminine. Intelligence
and beauty."
