F. M. Hollams

Frances Mabel Hollams (1877–1963), who signed her works F.M. Hollams, was a popular British painter of horses and dogs, active in the first three decades of the 20th century. She is noted for her technique of painting on wood panel with no background, so that the grain of the wood is visible. Growing up at Dene Park in Shipbourne she later moved to Puttenden Manor near the hamlet of Dunks Green.
