ART + DESIGN
INSPIRED BY THE LOVE TO TRAVEL
About
FINE ART BY: Holly A. Jones, Inc was established in Miami, Florida. Beginning with fine wall art and public art installations, Artist Holly A. Jones expanded her artwork into the world of wearable, hand-painted bags and accessories. Since launching the ART TO WEAR Collection she has exhibited around the world with one-of-a-kind hand made and hand-painted handbags and travel accessories. The collection can be acquired online directly or purchased at galleries, museum gift shops or cultural centers.
Thousands of passport covers and luggage tags have been acquired by collectors and they have been traveling around the world ever since. If you search the hashtag #MyArtTravels on any of the major social media websites, you will find some of the travel-loving collectors "checking-in" online with exploration and adventure images from around the world.
In recent years, Holly has been commissioned by large, global brands to hand paint her exotic floral flowers on their branded bags and accessories during in-store special events.
If you have any questions or would like to inquire about possible opportunities to collaborate, please reach out to us directly. We believe in sharing the passion of travel, art and culture through the ART TO WEAR Collection. We enjoy inspiring others to explore and learn what the world has to offer.
