“The Koi Series of paintings focus on vividly colored fish - Japanese carp - swimming in a realm of liquid reflections. The red, orange and golden koi often merge with their environment, swallowed by rivulets of water, becoming pure abstractions of light and motion. In a sense, these koi paintings are portraits in water. “
- Linda Holt , Artist Statement
“Holt’s....... paintings reveal an innate sense of glamour. She.... is a top dog painter where dog likenesses that are also art is concerned. A kind of edginess amid ostensible innocence is a quality of her best dog paintings.”
