One of my favorite patterns recently--my "Christmas Quaffs" collection hero pattern! I painted all those drinks in watercolor. Phew! #repeatpattern #surfacepattern #surfacepatterndesign #christmaspattern #festiveseason #watercolor #illustration #drinks #cozydrinks #tistheseason #heathert

Isn't it the little things, though? Even finishing one flower design, or marveling at your pretty village... I'm grateful that we had much-needed rain last night. What little thing are you happy about today? #inspirational #surfacedesign #floral #procreate #illustration #art #owl #heathert

This botanical illustration features the phrase "IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS" surrounded by autumn flowers including orange rudbeckia, burgundy blooms, yellow flowers, and pink berries. A small spotted owl sits among the foliage, with a ladybug and butterfly adding whimsical details. The artwork has a watercolor style against a beige background and is signed "hlmt '25."

Working on a winter collection in Cat Coquillette's Art of collections class. Now just need to come up with the patterns! Which one do you feel is most wintery? #art #birds #surfacedesign #snowyowl #dancingcranes #polarbear #arcticfox #reindeer #procreate #digitalillustration #heathert

Left: Polar bear crusted in snow just waking up, against a light blue oval. Right: Arctic fox against a gray oval, sitting behind a bare stick poking up from the snow.

Snowy Owl owl on a beige oval, behind a berry branch covered in snow on the left. On the right, a real reindeer against a very light blue oval, with a snowy rock at its front left hock.

A pair of dancing cranes in very minimalist colors, against an oval featuring a bare tree at the crest of a snowy ridge.

#mixedmediaprocreate #tuesdaymakers Every Tuesday (i.e. Teela Cunningham)'s new course, Mixed Media for Procreate, is so much fun! Love the results. Certainly nothing quick--I think this one took me about 20 hrs. #procreate #mixedmedia #branch #paint #digitalart #heathert #dayoff #art

A sprig with 7 leaves in various shades of green. Some of the leaves are reflecting a lot of light, and appear almost white.

Watercolor painting of a gnarly tree growing on a large puzzle piece with random puzzle pieces hanging from the branches as well. Background is a wash in indigo, purple, and aquamarine.

Super-happy to share my Lemon Squeeze collection with you! Fabrics on offer at www.spoonflower.com/designs?view...

A collage of different lemon-inspired fabric patterns. Top left is lemon slices with watercolor leaves, sprinkled with lemon flowers on a light blue background. There are 3 rectangles of a plain, randomly white-speckled pattern on orange, dusky rose, and bright blue backgrounds. There is another pattern with just slices, and one with just whole yellow lemons. The brightest pattern is on a teal background with stylized watercolor leaves, flowers, and green lemons.

"Frog Goes to Helltown" 2024. Acryla-gouache and oil pastel on canvas. 20x24. My last show comprised of these paintings that I consider post-apocalyptic. An imagined world without human interaction. I renamed this one after "Hell Goes to Frog Town." #abstractart #postapocalypticart #gouachepainting

An abstract painting that looks like a trippy, melting frog face. The color palette is dominated with green hues with pink and red highlights.

I've been watching these spectacular crabapple trees in Central Park for a while, and today, an American Robin obliged by posing for me as it gobbled down apple after apple! 🥰🥰🥰 #Robin #CentralPark #birds

Tree and Flower. Fine liner, gel pen, and copic markers on pigment dyed paper. 2011.

Twisty turkey tree with lots of fine lines indicating texture and movement, overshadowing some human-sized fantasy flowers, with a skein of undulating white lines in the background suggesting wind. The colors are mostly yellows, browns, and magenta.

I grew up in Switzerland—the French-speaking part—so, happy holidays to the rest of you! Kinda nice to have a place where I don’t feel apprehensive to be inclusive in wishing all and sundry a pleasant season and happy new year! #art #ArtAdventCalendar #greetingcard #procreate #illustration

Red-bellied Woodpecker. We're so fortunate to see these beautiful #birds at our suet feeder almost every day. This is a colored pencil drawing, 8x10. #ArtAdventCalendar #birdart #drawing #art #natureart #wildlife

Bird with a bright red head, black and white barred markings on its back and a white chest. You can see a bit of the reddish coloring under the white feathers on its belly. It sits on a brown tree limb.
