CONTEMPORARY ART REVIEW

Heidi Thompson

Lives and works in Canada

My love for beauty comes from living in

Canada surrounded by mountains , lakes , sky ,
fields and forest . Nature inspires me . I love her changing colours , random designs , luminosity and infinite space . My aim as a painter is to capture natural beauty – not by painting landscapes or sunsets ; rather by painting the essence of nature using abstract elements of pure colour , light , texture and space .
