Holly Cox - "Summer" - El Paso, TX


Third generation El Paso artist, Holly Cox, is the daughter of painter and muralist, Eugene Thurston and his wife Anna Lind Thurston. Her grandmother, Fern Thurston, was also a Texas artist. Holly is a graduate of Texas Western College, now the University of Texas at El Paso. Her piece, "Summer", features beautiful butterflies, which often can symbolize our AVANCE participants. Once they join the program, they often spread their wings and fly due to the knowledge and education obtained through the program.
