Heather Haymart

"My creative life began generations before me and continues through my children today. I made this love affair with art official when I earned my BFA and BSEd from the University of Missouri - Columbia. Being a high school art teacher and mural painter were my school of life stepping stones toward being the artist I was always called to be. Spending my days creating paintings for private, public and corporate collections is my great privilege and joy.

Art is my voice when I can’t find the words. It is my mission to combine colors and texture onto a surface in a way that emits an emotion into the space it inhabits and to the person who views it. My paintings are inspired by music, nature, human interaction and all things that make the world an interesting place. Although my paintings are abstract, it is a thrill for me to give a hint of something recognizable that people can connect with. I like to imagine interacting with my paintings is like going on a treasure hunt."
