Born in Oklahoma, the youngest child in an Air
Force family, artist Heidi has lived in many places throughout
her life. She considers it a privilege to have lived in many parts
of the U.S and experienced much of Europe, but the places dearest
to her are in the American West. In the badlands of North Dakota,
Heidi was drawn to horses. During her younger years in Colorado,
Heidi's family, with dogs in tow, often spent weekends camping
in the Rockies.
Her paintings naturally echo those memories as she primarily chooses
horses, dogs and sunlit nature scenes as her subjects. Heidi is
published in GaWaNi Pony Boy's book, "Of Women and Horses:
More Reflections of the Magical Bond," published by Bowtie
Press, 2005, and in Mary Engelbreit's Home Companion Magazine Christmas
2003 edition.
Heidi is a member of the CCA Gallery in Zionsville, IN, and the
Wabash Valley Watercolor Society. Heidi resides in Indiana and
works at home in her Sweetwater Art Studio. She and her husband,
Brad, share their home with his daughter and two amusing, lovable
dogs. They have future plans of moving to the country to make room
for a few horses. |
