Holland's goals as an instructor and as an artist run parallel, that is: a healthy respect for nature and an observe of fundamental "truths" such as light and atmosphere, shape and value. Holland teaches an academic approach to drawing and painting and stresses the importance of understanding the basics such as accurate draughtsmanship, correct color and mixing, and calligraphic brushwork, as well as composition.
