I have noticed that for the past few months I seems to be preoccupied with wings. Bird wings, butterfly wings.... it really doesn't matter. I find myself reading documents, prose and poetry, that all somehow end up mentioning wings or speak of flight. I sense this is the beginning of a movement for me. A progression in to the next stage of......( drum rolls...)...... I'm not sure what. That I honestly can't see the direction of where I will end up seems anti-climactic, I can only hope that keeping with the symbolism of wings and flight, it can only be.... up.

Welcome to the IndigoArts Blog.

My name is Holly McWilliams and I'm a Canadian artist living in Calgary, Alberta.

From a young age, I've had a passion for creating and expressing myself through art and dance. I attended The Alberta College of Art & Design, majoring in sculpture and painting. I have been an art teacher with Swinton's Art Instruction since 2000 and I also teach and perform Belly Dancing - one of the oldest social dances in world history.

In 2005 I developed Indigo Arts with a goal to inspire people and to help them realize their own passion and expression of their creative self. Art is a very personal experience, unique to every individual. Understanding technique is a doorway to another level of visual communication - this is where your personal expression will flourish.
