Supporting Donna’s Love Pet Rescue
At Donna’s Love Pet Rescue, every animal deserves the opportunity to feel safe, loved, and cherished.
The organization is committed to reuniting lost pets with their families and providing homeless animals with the care, protection, and support they need to thrive. Its mission is rooted in the belief that no animal should be left behind and that every rescued pet deserves the chance to experience a happy and fulfilling life in a loving forever home.
By attending this event, purchasing artwork, becoming a sponsor, or making a contribution, guests will help Donna’s Love Pet Rescue continue this important work within our community.
Featured Artist: S. Holliday
S. Holliday is a Texas-based contemporary artist whose work explores identity, perception, resilience, and the emotional architecture of the human experience.
Working primarily in acrylic, Holliday creates bold geometric compositions that blend abstraction with recognizable forms. Inspired by modernism and Cubism, her paintings use strong lines, rich earth tones, shifting perspectives, and symbolic elements to reveal the many facets of the self.
Hidden faces and interconnected forms often emerge within her compositions, inviting viewers to pause, reflect, and discover multiple layers of meaning. Her creative process balances thoughtful design with intuitive and spontaneous discovery, resulting in works that are both visually striking and emotionally engaging.
Through her art, Holliday seeks to create meaningful conversations about identity, human connection, and the ways in which our experiences shape how we see ourselves and others.
As part of this fundraising event, S. Holliday will generously donate 50% of the proceeds from the sale of her artwork to Donna’s Love Pet Rescue. This donation applies exclusively to artwork by S. Holliday sold during the event.

Creativity has been part of every chapter of my life. With a degree in Merchandising Management and experience as a personal shopper and corporate buyer, I developed a strong eye for style, trends, product development, and meaningful design.
After becoming a full-time mom, I began making jewelry as a creative outlet. What started as a hobby soon grew through local markets, word of mouth, and community support into Fern Home & Fashion, a woman-owned brand creating handcrafted jewelry inspired by nature, individuality, and perfectly imperfect beauty.
Today, I also enjoy teaching workshops, collaborating with local businesses, and supporting the community that helped turn a simple passion into a meaningful creative journey.

Cameras capture what happened. Great photography captures what it felt like. Our mission is simple: create images you’ll still love years from now, long after everyone has forgotten what day it was. Side effects of working with us may include excessive smiling, an unhealthy obsession with golden hour, and hearing the phrase, “Wait… that’s actually me?” more often than expected.
