The Artist
Heather Bailey
""Art has the power to transform the atmosphere of a place, turning even the darkest spaces into ones that breathe hope.""
Heather Bailey grew up in Zimbabwe and South Africa, where a “can-do” attitude was simply part of life. From a young age, she learned to sew, make, and bake just about anything. She went on to study fashion and art, but the journey to fully valuing her creativity - and calling herself an artist - has been hard-won, both mentally and socially. For Heather, being creative is not a pastime; it is essential to living.
