Heidi Shreiner- Up Before Don

Up Before Don 

My art captures those everyday magic moments. For all those walks where I found the perfect leaf! (ask me how I had a purse full of crumbled leaf bits). For the coffee cup that is the perfect color orange! (and all the other things that I love that are colorful) For the furry friends that are so sweet! (I start doing a happy dance in my studio when they look back at me.) – all of these moments are what I capture in my art. I'm a woman (you may have noticed). The longer I've lived the more I recognize all the ways that others try to put brackets or limitations on my life. I should be skinny, wear makeup, don't be 'bossy' or assertive, stay out of the way, be smaller, go along and get along, give my life to others (100%) and basically that's my life if I listened to the subliminal messages that float out there in the 'world'. Could I add more to this? Yep, but I'll leave it there and let it look stinky. (it is!)
