Heidi is an artist based in Kansas City & the internet.
Unconditional Love and Feminine Esoterica
is what helped to keep patient when Heidi was held back twice from Art school while growing up, despite strong promise and academic excellence in her passions for Fine Art. As an formal artist, Heidi is primarily self taught. She learned the majority of her academics formally from Debra Hardgrove M.A. during her general studies in University, continuing personal studies through her journeys to freedom and healing in Kansas City. Her love of old expressionist masters and her Austrian, Slavic heritage shines through her subject matter with art nouveauic poise; while her color pallets give nod to her online inspirations and social residency. Through experimentation and determination, she has formed her own unique style that continues to transform and push the whimsical and whisper messages in the power of humanity.
Heidi creates expressionistic paintings, digitally and traditionally, with signature symbolic embellishments of nouveauic gold foiled reliefs. These embellishments of canvas vermeil convey a language of magick and wonder that she has found while exploring her inner world and her spiritual journeys since she was a young child. Her autonomous process takes the viewer into the meaning of the soul and pursuit of spirituality. Lighthearted tones and beautiful visuals act like dreams frozen in time, keeping their secrets until unraveled for deeper interpretation.
