"maerD eW rehtegoT" "Together We Dream'
WELCOME!
My name is Bryan Kelly Holden, I am a contemporary conceptual artist based in Louisville, Kentucky.
Years ago, with hope that it would enrich people’s lives, I created an inspirational work of art entitled “Perseverance." It was created with 6,534 keys from 781 computer keyboards and required 347 hours of dedicated service to complete. Meticulously, placing each key to create a body of text regarding the theme of perseverance in life.
My son, Mason, and I are now delighted to be offering premium reproduction prints of the original “Perseverance” artwork. These prints are printed on aluminum, Masonite or paper and are offered in varying sizes, ranging from 12” x 8” to 72” x 48”. Joining The Perseverance Project is our latest work of art entitled "maerD eW rehtegoT" “Together We Dream”, and we are offering prints of the original Together We Dream artwork in sizes ranging from 13.5” x 8” to 81” x 48”.
We hope you will enjoy learning more about The Perseverance Project, and please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or would like to place an order. Thank you! Bryan and Mason

"THE WORDS OF PERSEVERANCE"
— Bryan Kelly Holden
Located at the bottom of the site, you can find a complete listing of "The Words of Perseverance” as they are on the original artwork and prints.
"Courage does not always roar, sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, I will try again tomorrow. Perseverance…. 4AMH"
Above is the last phrase and one of many that the Perseverance artwork presents. It represents how my parents, especially my father, raised me, guiding by example that your failures are lessons of life, and you rise from them with will, renewed knowledge, faith, and character. To this day, I continue to live by this conviction.
THE BLESSING OF A PATRON
When you buy something from an artist, you are buying more than an object. You are buying hundreds of hours of errors and experimentation. You are buying years of frustrations and moments of pure joy. You are not only buying just one thing, you are buying a piece of a soul…. a small piece of someone else’s entire life.

THE PICTURES DON'T DO THEM JUSTICE!
Above is an image of an actual 69" x 40.875" print on aluminum.
One of the main compliments we receive when someone sees their print in person is that it far exceeds their expectations. Also, people ask when looking at the large-scale aluminum prints. Are these the original artworks?
You need to see them in person to appreciate the quality.
