My Past Longer than the Future
‘This painting captures a quiet moment of completion. A woman walks away from the tennis court, her body relaxed, her movement unhurried - no longer in performance, but in release. Behind her stretches a long shadow, drawn across the court like a record of time itself, suggesting everything she has carried to this point: effort, discipline, repetition, and memory.‘

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.
