Willow Heath has shown her work in galleries, cafe’s, and art studios for more than twelve years. She lives in Seattle Washington where she exhibits her paintings, paints commission portraits, and  instructs adult and children’s painting classes. Willow paints using water soluble oils and acrylic paints. She personally mixes the colors for each piece using the three basic primary colors and white. She feels that by mixing her own colors she can more accurately convey her inspiration and there by adding another layer of artistry to her process. In place of an artist’s sketchbook Willow uses her eyes and her memory for light, shadow, and color.

Willow designed her class "Intuitive Painting" to offer beginning artists and professionals alike a forum to develop their technique, train their artist’s eye, and to personally dive deeper into their creative potential. Willow offers her students the building blocks toward their personal masterpieces with her uniquely personal learning approach. Willow encourages all artists to love the process as much as the outcome, and to not let other people’s opinions influence their creative visions.

Willow Heath is an artist dedicated to inspiring self-awareness, and promotes environmental and social responsibility. Each of Willow’s paintings reflects her personal meditations. Willow Heath is a member of World wide Women Artists, SeattleArtists.com , and CASA(care and share artists international).

Willow Heath was born in the remote Alaskan wilderness. She lived for many years on her family’s homestead secluded from civilization thus gaining her unique outlook on life. The artist feels that this removal from societal imprinting at an early age has given her a deep clarity in her artistic visions and allowed her the freedom to express herself unabridged. Willow Heath spent the later half of her upbringing living a nomadic lifestyle immersed in the arts, and living amongst numerous artist communities in the United States.
