# About me
One hundred years ago Heather would have been found forging trails through the uncharted heart of Africa chronicling its creatures, great and small. Or, perhaps, writing an autobiography of harrowing adventures in the wildest of places. Today Heather’s love of adventure and the natural world finds her using brush and canvas so that her viewers may traverse these wild and sometimes fantastical places.“As artists we have the power to create the extraordinary from what may seem like the ordinary. My drive has, many times, been interrupted by visions of
dragons on the overpass or cheetahs on the hunt in the tall grasses nearby”
Heather’s wildlife paintings have shown at the OMMA gallery in Santa Barbara, Frameworks Gallery in Bozeman, and Safari Club International in Reno, as well as many other shows in her home state of Colorado. Heather’s illustrative works have won her several awards and claimed clients as prestigious as Land Rover with whom she has over twenty tire cover designs roaming the globe. Heather’s current illustration project has her working closely with NY Times Best Selling author C.L. Wilson. Together they create artwork and merchandise for Cheryl’s Tairen Soul novel series, an epic tale of magic, passion, and fantasy.
“This is my favorite type of project as Cheryl’s writing is so vivid that it begs to be illustrated. I love both the wildlife and the fantasy genre and it is my sincere hope that my paintings inspire people to conserve and become educated about the natural world around them. In doing so, the creatures of today will not become the myths of tomorrow, preserved only by artists on the pages of books.”

Thanks. There will be new Tairen art this month. I am waiting for the printer to get it back to me. There is one for Winter King, a color version of Truemates, and Ellie's battlefield vision from the Tairen's Eye. Right now I am working on a sculpture for the serpent of midgard so I am a little behind on the painting front New kitling plushies will be in at tairenslair.com

Hi, you may not recognize me, but I was the one that had asked all of the art questions at Dragon Con on Friday... and also stated that I was going into an Astro-Physics major.
