“Then She Remembered: It’s the Third Time That’s the Charm” Original Painting 30”x40”

“This is Faces in a Crowd —

a collection born from color, connection, and contrast.

I asked friends and family to send me colors that inspired them.

Those shades became the heartbeat of these pieces.

From there, I explored the space between structure and the organic—

shapes that are both intentional and free.

Each painting captures a fragment of a moment,

a feeling,

a face you might almost recognize.

This is my latest work—personal, layered, and full of quiet stories.

”Then She Remembered: It’s the Third Time That’s the Charm” 

30” x 40” canvas, unframed
Mixed Media original painting by Angela Holman.

This collection of paintings was inspired by the people in my life. What started out in my mind as organic pebble shapes quickly became crowds of people. Each time my husband walked through my studio as I was painting he mentioned that the paintings looked like crowds to him…Then I started seeing it too!  So each painting has a story, a memory, or a feeling connected to it. 

“Then She Remembered: It’s the Third Time That’s the Charm” was inspired by my need to paint neutrals after painting several bright paintings in a row. This was my second neutral painting in the series. I was going for tone on tone whites but kept getting intrigued by shades of tan.
