What Remains #2
I make art out of strangers’ discarded memories. This piece is a tribute to an unknown girl, from an unknown time and place. Despite all the unknown details, her countenance is memorable. Continue reading What Remains #2
Out of the Ashes
Out of the Ashes is currently on display at the Lewisville Grand Theater.
The random objects are a connection to people and moments in time that led to this piece. My role was to see the possibility and to be open to the creative process.
The creative process had disastrous moments but I kept moving forward until the piece came out of ashes. Continue reading Out of the Ashes
It all started with “I have an idea….”
On a recent Saturday night, I was in my dining room (it doubles as my art studio) using a power drill on what looks like a million found objects from my lawn. I would pause periodically and look down at the powdery, sawdust mess I was creating on my floor, table and clothing.
What am I doing? Why am I doing this? Have I lost my mind?
I didn’t bother answering the questions. Instead, I continued my art project with ardent determination. But I did decide it would be interesting to interview my artist friends.
That is how this new series was born! Continue reading It all started with “I have an idea….”

Additional photos by Denise Holguin on exhibit at the MCL Grand Theater in Lewisville!
I was encouraged to submit additional art pieces in the “Self Portrait” exhibit at the MCL Grand Theater in Lewisville. It took me awhile to come up with my first submission, “Iterations”. Coming up with additional pieces seemed daunting. But I have a saying: if you’re handed a piece of meat are you going to cook it? Translation: if you’re given an opportunity are you going to take advantage of it or let it go to waste? I’m not only going to cook it, I’ll make multiple meals out of it! Visit the blog to see my additional submissions. Continue reading Additional photos by Denise Holguin on exhibit at the MCL Grand Theater in Lewisville!
