About The Artist
Holly Mahoney is originally from Geelong, where she spent her childhood enjoying the rugged beauty of the south coast, later exploring this landscape further in her body of artwork at university.
Based on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, Holly has become a visual artist known for her figurative and landscape works on paper and canvas, often the ocean and the deep blue, a recurring theme.
Holly’s artworks invite the viewer to explore her world inspired by the everchanging movement of the ocean and be immersed in dramatic light, and colour.
Holly holds a BA in Visual Art (Painting & Drawing) from the University of Ballarat and Gallipoli Art Prize - Finalist, 2021.
Inspired By The Ocean
Fine Artist Based on Sydney’s Northern Beaches
Many of Holly’s paintings are an exploration of the coast, shore line and rockpools of the Northern Beaches - a vast source of natural inspiration - right here on Sydney's door stop.
Finalist Gallipoli Art Prize
Anzac Spirit, Then And Now
This artwork draws from her own experience, exploring the shores of Anzac Cove, walking in the footsteps of soldiers past – to present-day mateship of the Turkish people at the Lone Pine Memorial, and playing 2-up at local RSLs across the nation.
Working from personal photographs and historical depictions of soldiers, this work is centred around ethereal figures past and present set against a dramatic landscape illuminated by the sunset, reflective of the ongoing human spirit, hope, and freedom of a new dawn.

Unique Colour & Light
Holly’s artwork is an emotive response to her subject. Whether a landscape or figure, she captures, line, movement, colour, and light in gestural marks that take the viewer on a journey as to how she interprets the world. Holly strives to imbue each mark with a sense of optimism and honesty. Holly's playful use of colour and light encourage the viewer to reflect and immerse one's self in the piece.
