Holly Coulis

Holly Coulis is a Canadian-born painter based in New York known for her distinctive still life paintings that feature flattened, simplified forms rendered in bold, unexpected color combinations. Her work draws on the tradition of tabletop still life painting while subverting conventions through her use of compressed space, graphic shapes, and a highly personal chromatic sensibility. Coulis has exhibited widely in the United States and internationally, earning recognition for her ability to imbue everyday objects, fruits, vessels, and domestic items, with a quietly surreal and meditative presence.
