Wool Roving, Ink, Acrylic Paint, Watercolors

Naomi Hollans is a 16 year old artist from Gallatin, TN. She is heavily involved in a variety of arts in her community, including community and school theatre, vocal music, public speaking, and many different visual art forms.

Naomi has had her ink drawings featured in exhibitions at the Frist Art Museum for two years in a row, and considers ink sketching to be her favorite way to draw. Her most notable artistic career is her Etsy shop, ChicknDoodleSoup, which has over 250 sales and almost 100 five star reviews. On her Etsy shop, Naomi creates small figurines of animals and characters, jewelry charms such as earrings, and even “paintings” all with the use of needle-felted wool roving.

Naomi most enjoys creating custom orders, because she loves the opportunity she has to bring other people’s ideas to life!
