About the Artist

Peggy Holcroft was born in Toronto. Having spent a number of years in Belleville, she returned to the Quinte region in 2003 after living in the United States for twenty years. Peggy Holcroft, as an artist, has been a member of the various communities through the years, most recently St. Petersburg, Florida, where she was very active in the art scene.

A passionate entrepreneur, Peggy Holcroft has been successful in business and now devotes her time to her "love of art". Peggy has extensive International commissions of private residences and businesses. Peggy is a member of the Quinte Arts Council, and past advertising chair on the executive board of the Belleville Art Association, Fine Art America, Brushstrokes, Canadian Artists on the web, and she actively participates in many events through the year.

Peggy explores the concepts of reality and imagination using oil as her medium. Peggy has a real love for historic homes, churches, and other buildings and finds herself caught up in the history they have to tell of days gone by. She sees these historic buildings as having something special about them. Each one has a uniqueness or beauty that asks to be captured and shared.  She also captures her love for pets and the beauty of nature in her paintings.
