Sobre el Artista

‘I like to explore both figurative and landscape painting and more recently portrait painting. I am interested in depicting people going about everyday life etc, but I like to explore what lies below the surface of life, the motivations that propel people on in their lives or the emotions and the world of imagination that the landscape around us evokes.’ Heather originally trained as an Art Teacher at the National Art School in Sydney where she majored in painting and drawing.
