ben holiday is a chicago-based artist drawing inspiration from his work in interior design. his early pieces focused on patterns, stencils, and abstracts. ben's work in luxury residential design, commercial architecture, and travel have inspired increasingly complex paintings.

ben creates each image as an original painting using hand drafting techniques. he has his artwork professionally scanned to capture high-resolution images. using photo-manipulation software and various aesthetic judgments, ben creates the final "print image" from the scan. once the image is finalized, it is time to print onto canvas or acrylic (see below). when prints are in a series, they are numbered sequentially starting at 1. in these cases, the print number will be followed by the total number in the series. instead of a number, some prints are labeled with an "ap," which signifies "artist's proof."
