About

I’m so glad you’re here.

My name is Heather and I’m a mixed media collage artist with a heart for healing.

I create gentle, soulful art layered with words and textures that speak to the quiet parts of us – the parts that crave softness, truth, and a sense of coming home to ourselves.

From Therapist to Artist

For many years, I worked as a psychotherapist, holding space for others to navigate their healing.

When my own mental health asked me to step away from the therapy room, I wasn’t sure what would come next.

What I found was a pile of torn papers, paint-stained fingers, and a way to express what words alone couldn’t say.

Art became my way back to myself.

Why I Create

I believe art can be medicine.

I believe beauty heals.

I believe we’re already whole – even when we feel fragmented.

Each piece I create is a visual affirmation, an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and feel seen.

My work often includes layered textures, found imagery, intuitive marks, and phrases that whisper truth.

It’s for anyone on a journey of remembering their worth, softness, and sacredness.

These days . . .

I live quietly with my hubby {and full-time carer} Peter, on a wee farm in Galloway, Scotland.

We are surrounded by fields and beautiful hills.

We take each day at a time as we manage and navigate our new normal, living with a mental health condition and we count all of our blessings, often.

My invitation to you:

I invite you along on this journey with me. Follow my arty adventures, savour the messy pieces I create, download your free art print or, maybe, be inspired to start your own creative journey. Who knows where we might end up.
