Chloe Mae Studios

🎨 Something big is coming to Downtown Allen.

Chloe Mae Studios is thrilled to host McKinney-based artist Andrea A. Holmes Art Studio for a solo exhibition — COLOR, JOY & CONNECTION — celebrating the arrival of Allen's very first downtown mural, made possible through grant funding from the City of Allen's Community Development Corp and Allen Arts Alliance.

Andrea is known across Texas for her bold, nature-inspired work and her extraordinary ongoing project to paint 100 bird murals worldwide. We are so honored to bring her vision to our corner of Downtown Allen.

✨ Opening Reception
Saturday, June 27 | 6–8 pm

Mural coming soon. 👀

An opening reception is a free, come-as-you-are celebration — meet the artist, see the work, maybe even bring some home. Bring your friends, bring your family, and come celebrate with us. You really don't want to miss this one.

Allen Arts Alliance

My solo exhibition What I Paused For: What We Almost Missed is on view now at through June 27.

These paintings begin in the spaces we pass through without really seeing — creek edges, park margins, the stretch of path between here and somewhere else. The titles are love letters: to people I think about while running, to conversations that continue, to those I miss.

“When you stood in front of me.” “I love when you walk toward me: Brookside by the creek.” “It went quiet for a while and then I could hear you again.”

“Jennifer’s work invites us to reconsider the places we think we already know. Through her process, she transforms the familiar into something deeply contemplative. The result is a body of work that feels both contemporary and personal.” — Suzy Jones, Executive Director, ArtCentre of Plano

Small oils start at $95 — shop the full exhibition through the link in bio.

Come see it in person if you can. Reception and artist talk: Sunday, May 24, 4–6 p.m. Free and open to all.
