The contemporary artist Holly Roberts is known for her painted photographs. Her images created through a collage of cuttings from her photographs are laid upon abstract paintings with found objects adding texture. Through this technique, the images come to depict abstract figures with body parts which include elements from each of these mediums. The found objects, such as twigs, often serve as arms or other limbs. The 10 images in the portfolio are original photographs of her finished unique art work which incorporate text telling her story.
