Holly Somerville lives in the Glen of Imaal, west Wicklow. She has an MA in botany from Somerville College Oxford, and a BA in visual communication from Edinburgh College of Art. Holly has had sell-out exhibitions around Ireland and has exhibited in the Royal Hibernian Academy annual exhibition. She has been commissioned by the National Trust and by Trinity College Dublin, and is a Fellow of the Ballinglen Arts Foundation in Ballycastle, county Mayo. For some years she was based in the herbarium of Trinity College’s botany department, drawing botanically correct pen and ink illustrations for researchers and botanical gardens around the world. Here she also updated the drawings for the seventh edition of Webb’s An Irish Flora (Dundalgan Press). Holly now works from her studio, mainly in watercolour on hot-pressed Fabriano paper. She is available for commissions.

    Makers: Art Cards Ireland

    An artist’s work may disappear into the hands of a collector and rarely be seen again. Our art cards uncover some of the work going on in Irish studios, and offer it for more people to enjoy.

    We currently publish 40 Irish artists. Most were born in Ireland, some come from other countries and became part of the Irish art scene by living and working here. Our cards are high quality reproductions of their original work. The artists work in many different media, from oils and inks to textiles and digital media.
