Heather Horton’s work focuses on internal states, contemplative narratives and often has a personal connection to her own life.
Heather was born and raised in Burlington, Ontario, Canada. She attended McMaster University where she received a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature. Heather then went on to graduate from the well-respected Interpretive Illustration program at Sheridan College.
Heather’s work can be found in private and corporate collections worldwide. A selection of her paintings is now a part of the permanent collection at the Canadian Embassy in Ankara, Turkey, as well as part of the Government of Ontario's permanent collection. Several of Horton’s paintings can be seen in the Lionsgate film “A Simple Favor”, starring Blake Lively, Anna Kendrick, and directed by Paul Feig. Also, Heather has been profiled by Bravo! Canada series The Artist’s Life.
Several of her paintings are headed to the moon as a part of the Lunar Codex Project, which will have art in digital form as a part of the payload of three different missions landing in three locations on the lunar surface. You can read more about this exciting project at http://LunarCodex.com
Heather has studios in Los Angeles and London, England, where she and her husband live.
On today’s episode Heather talks about her love of the figure, the repeated element of water in her work, and what influenced her early works.
