Heather's Process

Painting is an expressive and cathartic process for me.  I start with no preconceived notion about what the work will become.  I listen to my intuition and let the surfaces emerge.   My thoughts are often of the patinas that arise with age, the gradual change in the color and texture and structure of all things over time.  The Oregon landscapes, seascapes, and cloudscapes have been an immense inspiration.
