| Welcome!
to Green Spirit Studio, a place of elemental magic where fascinating
little people are brought to light. These one-of-a-kind mixed-media
figurative sculptures offer a perceived life force of their own.
Fantasy characters, Grandmothers, strong women, faces of The Goddess,
and various Spirits abound. Enjoy your visit!
Some of our recent Studio additions:
Meditating Mamas - Buddha Mothers in a variety of materials
Ancient Mother glycerin soap - inspired by the Venus of Willendorf!

My mother and I got together to build this website for her work 7 years
ago.. it doesn't seem that long ago. We worked from time to time to
update it, and add the photos of the newest additions to the extended
family of spirits as it grew. My mother's fast moving affliction with
multiple myeloma cancer was a shock to us all. She kept hope to be able
to continue on her works up until the end. Even in her last days she
made the time to paint a golden version of a meditating mama, of which
many still sit peacefully in the studio. Many of her works remain in
the studio in various stages of completion, including a whole
suspicious tub labeled humorously "raw heads". My mother's artistic
legacy continues after she has passed on, her methods of inspiration
and creation passed to the adult and younger people who attended her
classes and workshops over many summers, autumns, winters and springs.
A few of which I fondly remember firsthand, as I was able to be her
teacher's assistant a few times over the years. (View work from Carleigh's past classes) I hope to keep my mother's website up for some time to come.
Love,
Leif Holt
Sheet Music has been being worked on for many of the songs that my mother wrote. Some scanned images of the music are Here.
