A life change caused a return to Kamloops in 2002. Her passion for Art still had to be honoured & shared with others, so, she focused on teaching.

She explored various mediums & techniques while helping her students to find their voices as Artists &, when time off allowed, she produced over 40 paintings in one year.
Due to the encouragement of her much loved students, 2006 marked a rededication to her career. She celebrated her 1st Solo Show, received wide acclaim for her painting "Maggie", which won Juror's Choice, People's Choice & the prestigious Patterson Award .

Heather Hollingsworth was born in Williams Lake, B.C. in 1962. The third of four girls, she grew up on Sumas Mountain, about ten miles outside of Abbotsford, B.C., spending countless hours hiking through the forest, most often on her own, just exploring. A budding naturalist?
Thanks to her mother, her formal education as an artist began with oil paint-by-number kits and continued with Walter Foster's How to Draw Dogs. Her artist and archeologist uncle, Bill Chappelle, was a huge influence and source of encouragement and inspiration.
Heather attended Fraser Valley College in Abbotsford in 1982 where she completed the first year of a two year Graphic Design and Communications program. Interrupted by parenthood, she continued to draw and paint ever since.
Heather now resides in the Thompson Okanagan.
Watercolour and pencil are her mediums of choice...so far.
