Meet the Artist

Holly Klassen

Watching her mother paint as a young child, Holly learned how to draw the world surrounding her, and sketching became her passion. This portfolio showcases how new skills have served her to start imaginative works, bringing the digital art world back to the tactile world, through installation pieces, eye-catching murals, and book illustrations. Welcome to some examples of what she has created. Holly is a mother of two in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Archer and Ivy are the middle names of her two children, and where her design name originated. 
Drawing from everyday life for all her inspiration, Holly appreciates clean, minimal designs with eye-catching colour palettes to make the viewer smile.
Animated shorts and hand drawn animation are constant sources of inspiration, as are little moments that brighten others' days.

Look out for her in ten years when she fulfills her goal of working on an Oscar-nominated animated short film
