Holyoke Heritage State Park is proud to host the works of one who has made the city of Holyoke his home. Pieces created by J. Bryant II will showcase in the Exhibition Hall of the park’s visitor center from April 1, 2023 until May 31.
Through his medium of color pencil & ink as well as illustrative marker & watercolor the artwork of J. Bryant II expresses the beauty of uniqueness and a vivid view of the simplicity of the shared moment. He states, “I believe art should inspire joy in the individual who looks upon it and each time this is accomplished, it brings much relief and gratitude for the opportunity to share the love and spirit of imagination with one and all.”
The artist has shown his work in multiple venues including:
Exhibition hours are 12:00 – 4:00, Tuesdays through Sundays.
