Heather Russell was born in May 1971 in Milton, New Zealand.

Largely self-taught, Heather has developed a distinctive abstract minimalist style in which she strives to capture the "essence" of the subject. Her art is characterized by simple shapes and outlined colors. The challenge to keep her art simple yet evocative has shaped her signature style. She tells many stories with only a few brush strokes.

Heather’s love of nature regularly finds an outlet in her paintings, and her art hangs on walls all over the world.

Animals, especially cats, are a matter close to her heart. They are a subject for her paintings very often and she ties to do her part by participating in various animal welfare projects.

Heather chooses the internet as her preferred way to exhibit her artworks. It serves as inspiration to fellow artists and friends all over the world and the passion for this new media led to her role as moderator on an art site called Shadowness HERE and you can see her gallery at http://essencestudios.deviantart.com/gallery/
