Welcome to the home of the Mighty Mandala!
Hi! I am Heather and I am a 26 year resident of Colorado. I have been married to my husband, Brian, for 24 years. We raised our two amazing children in the ‘burbs of Broomfield. It was only after moving to our Retirement Home in Cañon City that I discovered I had an inner artist.
I am a Mandala Artist. I paint with acrylic paints, including metallic, pearl and glitter paints. I usually paint on canvas boards but I also paint on stone, wood, ceramics, fabrics and more!
I love the idea of Wabi-Sabi, of finding beauty in imperfection, of revering authenticity above all. I paint entirely free-hand with no forethought of pattern or design. My paintings tend to be surprising even as I paint them. I like to think of them as a download of sacred geometry from the universe!
My paintings are created with a clear intention to delight the eye and lift the spirit, they represent my devotion to God and to humanity.
I am a very new artist and I have only begun to spread my wings!
