The creation of 'The Holy Pictures' has lasted almost the entire length of Holmes' career. To cut straight to Holmes' own words: 'The story of this album really began on the 4th August 1996, when my mother, Sarah Holmes, passed away. I had always wanted to make a record about my life in Belfast and all the things attached to that'. Personal themes as a basis for creative work proved to be challenging though, hence 'The Holy Pictures', brewing for a period of over a decade while Holmes carried on with his eclectic and productive career to date.
