From childhood fascination to present day passion, Heather Post Domke's journey has wound its way through any adventures, complete with life's undesired detours, urged by her love of creativity.  Her footsteps carried her from Simcoe Ontario, a few miles north of Lake Erie, through higher education at Niagara College, Ryerson Polytechnical Institute and Mohawk College and back to small town roots.  She left along her trail, creations of her imagination, in furniture, clocks of exotic woods, works in pen and inks, batiks, watercolours, canvas floorcloth carpets and place mats plus images and ideas in advertising and promotion for her family and friends

​

Heather's instruction and education continued in a broad range of employment in areas of silkscreen, cartography, art director for Tee Shirt imagery and in her own businesses; sign painter, colour consultant and home renovation decor and staging.  Stick-to-it doggedness grew in the variety of less fulfilling jobs so often necessary along life's way.  Through marriage and child rearing years materials silently collected un-noticed, and a new expression of creativity emerged.  Rooted in her gardens on a farm new Delhi, Ontario with a studio dressed to inspire, Heather can now be found mapping life memories and memorabilia into collage creations; wrapped in unique and intricate webs of design,  She invites you to step into her world to view or create, as her workshops in various media open doors for your own creative desires.  Her welcome sign is up most weekends and her website at www.hiddencreekstudios.com will guide your way.

​

Art like wine matures with time.  All life's experiences imbue them both with notes of flavour and bouquet, creating something unique and refined.  Those who'd be rich in life experience can find in art the wonder of creativity so often left behind; and some will be inspired to let the child within, learn once again to play.
