The painting is based on a photo of mine, taken of one the lion guardians in front of a Chinese temple. In China, there are typically 2 lions that stand guard, one male and one female. While each look similar, the male lion has a paw on a sphere, the female lion has her paw on a lion cub. If you look carefully, you can see some of the original collage layer showing through in some areas. I liked the idea of the beauty of the statue sort of spreading out into space, represented by the decorative element that merges in and out of the lion. Unframed, cradled panel sides are finished with clear varnish. Painting is wired and ready to hang. Signed, titled and dated on back.

Despite an aversion to cold, Bryan Holland resides year round in Minnesota, where he creates layered oil paintings that are often a mix of collage and other experimentation. His work incorporates realistic painting techniques fused with design elements such as text, patterns, and decorative motifs, which serve to create tension both visually and thematically. Holland holds a Master of Fine Arts in painting from the University of South Dakota, and Bachelor of Arts in art from USF/Augustana College, as well as a degree in graphic design from Alexandria Technical and Community College. His varied experience has helped shape his unique aesthetic. In addition to being an artist, Bryan has also worked as a graphic artist, a college professor, and gallery owner. Most recently, Bryan founded and organized an annual studio crawl event in his home town, and is on the board of a local artist alliance. His paintings have been featured in numerous exhibitions, including solo shows and national juried presentations. Publications include Spectrum Fantastic Art, Hi-Fructose (online), Juxtapoz (online), and New American Paintings. His work is held in both national and international private collections. See more at
