Heather Clements combines realistic portraiture, expressive abstraction, and elements of flora and fauna to represent a symbiotic relationship with nature.  After growing up in Northern Virginia, she earned her BFA in painting from the Maryland Institute College of Art before moving to Panama City, Florida.  For Heather, creating art not only adds beauty with meaning into the world, but is a means for escaping depression.  The category 5 hurricane that hit the Florida Panhandle took away so much of Heather’s life, including the nature she loved by destroying 70-90% of the trees over millions of surrounding acres.  Within months she also lost multiple loved ones.  After a year without making art, deep in grief and depression, the only thing that saved her was a week of isolation unplugged in the woods far from home, where she finally made gobs of healing art.  Since then Heather’s art has evolved and exploded onto giant walls through expressive murals, making art accessible to all.  Through her art, she hopes to move others to develop a deeper connection with their own natural surroundings.  That bond encourages more sustainable practices, but also stronger mental health.  Now residing in nature in Asheville, North Carolina, Heather is embracing creating the art her inner-most weirdo yearns to make. She has expanded into creating interactive art, through her new book “Pull Me Apart” with pull-tabs, spin wheels, and more, and numerous interactive murals.
