Hello my name is Heather, I’m a Northerner living in Birmingham, Alabama. I have always had a passion for traveling and art. Art has always been a huge part of my life, it has got me through good times and bad. I have always found it easier to express myself through drawing. My favorite part about art is knowing that everyone perceives it differently and finds their own story in each piece.

I was intrigued to try incorporating coffee into my artwork and not only did it smell good, but it made for an amazing color palette on raw linen.

Working with coffee peaked my interest to explore other non-traditional methods and materials. I’ve always loved the rich color of Alabama red clay, and after a spring rain one morning I noticed the beautiful color it provided when mixed with water. That’s when I knew I had to bring those colors to life on linen!

Since working with coffee and clay I’m excited to explore other natural resources to work with and I hope that everyone finds their own story in my art.
