Heather Curtis

Heather Curtis is an illustrator and designer with a rich background in both classic graphic design and studio arts, including oil and acrylic painting, printmaking, and drawing. She also dabbles in digital painting. Having struggled with dyslexia, Heather finds joy in the narrative power of illustration to tell stories without words.

Her artistic goal is to infuse inspiration, awe, and beauty into every creative endeavor. Recently discovering her Indigenous (Michisaagiig of Rice Lake, Hiawatha Nation) ancestry, she is on a journey to learn more about her roots. Heather enjoys sharing dad jokes, hoping that both her humour and her art bring smiles to those who experience them.

Originally from Vancouver, Heather has embraced the relaxed pace and natural beauty of the Comox Valley, where she works as a full-time freelance designer and artist. She loves neon, sci-fi, board games, and spending time with her partner and cat.
