About the Artist

Hollybeth Runco is an exhibiting member of the Providence Art Club.  She paints a unique vibration of landscapes and cloudscapes. As an engineer, she had danced with the intimate, atomic allure of materials for over 28 years. When deafness and a debilitating medical condition ended a corporate career, the pursuit of happiness dictated a different course. 

"The pursuit of happiness demands we battle - every single day - to feel beauty in unquiet courage; hear rhapsody in silence; and embrace the discordance of mess and mistakes." - Hollybeth 

Whether enlisting palette knives and wood or brush and canvas, Hollybeth brings guts to this passionate, essential combat.

Hollybeth was born in Fitchburg, Massachusetts and now resides in Providence, RI.
