Hi. We’re Chris + Anna Holmes.
We’re husband-and-wife oil painters (and Certified Bob Ross Instructors), and we make art that feels like stepping into the wild.
That means: vibrant landscapes, lush florals, and playful wildlife. The kind of original oil paintings that bring a burst of color, light, and wonder straight into your living room. Not because your life needs to slow down—but because your home deserves a little spark of magic every time you look over.
How we ended up doing this together
We met during our Bob Ross certification at the original Joy of Painting studio. Which sounds like a cute fun fact… except it basically rerouted our entire lives.
One class turned into another. Then a cross-Atlantic love story. Then a whole lot of "Wait… are we really doing this?"
And now we paint, create, and teach together in Henderson, Tennessee—because apparently we like big life decisions with a side of Liquid White.
Why we paint (and why it matters)
Because art shouldn't feel stiff, sterile, or locked away in a gallery. It should feel like an invitation.
We paint to capture those vibrant pockets of nature that make you stop and stare—a sunlit forest trail, a glowing evening sky, or a burst of wild color in full bloom.
Whether we’re working on original canvases or guiding beginners through their very first painting, everything we create is meant to remind you: you don’t have to be "an artist" to bring a little extra wonder into your daily life.
If you’re craving more color, more joy, and a whole lot of nature magic in your space… welcome. You’re in the right place.
