Her love of horror films set her down a path of self-taught Special FX makeup and sculpture. During the pandemic Heather returned to Illustration and began painting with watercolor and gouache. Subjects ranging from plants and animals, to objects used in witchcraft spell work, to bones, skeletons, and even back to pinup horror.
