Hello! My name is Heather, and I’m a 38-year-old programmer-turned-artist living in Erie, PA. I hope my paintings make you smile. I like to tell stories with my artwork – stories about friendship, silliness, love, peacefulness, family, and togetherness. It’s too easy to get caught up in the negative parts of life. My hope is that my paintings are a reminder of all that is special and magical in the world – the things that really bring us true happiness.

To portray these wonderful parts of life, I like to use happy, vibrant colors. My subject matter is friendly forest critters, who all help and support each other. I'm inspired by my nephews and niece, and my love for all animals - especially my cat :)

♥ MY STORY ♥
Back in August of 2010, my dad passed away. He left many things behind in this world, including his dream of retiring and spending time on woodworking, his creative passion. It was then that I realized that life is just too short - and we only live once - and I needed to do what I am most passionate about.

I started painting, and I realized that I wanted the vibrant life of my paintings to bring joy to others. I opened up my etsy shop, and it's all been a great life adventure from there.

Since then, I've created two coloring books, quit my programming job to focus on my art, moved to the small city of Erie, PA to live near my family, painted lots of murals, and sold art to many people all over the world!

♥ MY PRODUCTS ♥
I love to create products that bring out others' creativity and bring smiles to their faces. My Paint-Your-Own canvases are my pride and joy - I hand-paint an outline of my own artwork on every canvas, and you get to fill it in! It's like a coloring book but better - you end up with a painted masterpiece.

My current obsession is creating coloring activity books for weddings, special events, and holidays. I have so much fun coming up with the themed artwork and piecing it all together into fun activities for kids!

I also love creating full-color paintings on canvas. I have fun turning these into greeting cards, bookmarks, prints, mousepads... you name it! If it can be printed on, I've probably put my art on it :)

And lastly, my love, my Cricut! My boyfriend surprised me with a Cricut back in May of 2018. I don't know how I ever lived without it! It has allowed me to create decals, baby bodysuits, t-shirts, and iron-ons of my artwork.

I hope you enjoy my products as much as I love to make them, package them, and ship them out. I take pride in my products and my artwork and I hope that shows through the care that I put into each order! Thanks for reading!
