PLAYING WITH MY MINDS EYE
Posted by Heather Jacob on
Hi there, my name is HEATHER JACOB.
Firstly I am so honoured, excited and happy to be invited to GUEST DESIGN here at Sassy Scrappers. Heartfelt Thanks to you Olga for the sensational big box bursting with delectable goodies .
Now a little about me, I am blissfully married to my wonderful, supportive “soul mate” Baden. My Family feature throughout my work and there is nothing more important to me than my family. Creating art is one of my many passions in life .. To me this craft is the perfect combination of art, photography, beautiful paper, and glorious words.
I especially love to choose some elements, cast a spell and see what happens, to create a dream and follow it through. Subtle shadows, light and color are all ingredients for casting the spell. I am in harmony with my garden and its inhabitants, connecting with the beauty that surrounds me. For me it is all-consuming, inspiring and a natural expression of my inner self, which I love to weave into my works.
I am inspired by colour and texture … I love to include stitching, chipboard, journaling, muslin, fabrics, metal elements, inking, masking and texture paste.
Off the page projects and altered art are a fave of mine. I see my style as “CLASSIC” with attention to detail…I tend to lean toward monochromatic themes with a little shabby chic/grunge thrown in..
