Design by Heather T.

This botanical illustration features the phrase "IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS" surrounded by autumn flowers including orange rudbeckia, burgundy blooms, yellow flowers, and pink berries. A small spotted owl sits among the foliage, with a ladybug and butterfly adding whimsical details. The artwork has a watercolor style against a beige background and is signed "hlmt '25."

Isn't it the little things, though? Even finishing one flower design, or marveling at your pretty village... I'm grateful that we had much-needed rain last night. What little thing are you happy about today?

Working on a winter collection in Cat Coquillette's Art of collections class. Now just need to come up with the patterns! Which one do you feel is most wintery?

A drawn curlicue sun in gold, with a central horizontal transverse ray made with purple, pink, red & orange curlicues. The background is monocolor light yellow wash in watercolor. There is some red lettering across the bottom right that reads Le Soleil Epanoui, French for The Beaming Sun.

A beaming sun à la Heather! 😊 'Cuz god knows we need something bright these days.

Bust (in the classical sense) of a young woman with her eyes closed and head slightly tilted. The lighting tends to the orange and green. The strokes are broad with large swaths of color. Some contours are indicated by light-colored brush strokes.

A sprig with 7 leaves in various shades of green. Some of the leaves are reflecting a lot of light, and appear almost white.

#mixedmediaprocreate #tuesdaymakers Every Tuesday (i.e. Teela Cunningham)'s new course, Mixed Media for Procreate, is so much fun! Love the results. Certainly nothing quick--I think this one took me about 20 hrs.

A tight tossed pattern of simple two-lobed, 5 petal flowers in blue, with graphic cross-hatched centers of brighter blue, and scattered little branches of 3, 2, and 1 leaves/leaf. Pain in the neck English.

Hahahhh! Much better on the "simple" spring flowers front.

For a Cat Coquillette weekly challenge, a tossed pattern of light pink flowers with yellow stamen and blue-green stems and leaves on a very light pink background in a watercolor style. Phew.

Simple Spring Floral. But probably not simple enough. Lol!

A twining repeating pattern of simple leafy branches, blue mushrooms, and a blue butterfly. Everything, including the background, is covered in subtle lines made up of one dash, then 2 dots.

I'm feeling a little dash dot dotty... New #pattern #design with #mushrooms and #butterflies.

A weeping willow with dark and light leaves against a gray background, with a pale orange moon hiding behind the branches. At the bottom of the page you can read 'May sweet memories / surround you in your sadness.'

Darkly colored tall pine silhouettes (3) with a full moon shining over the hills, all in tones of gray. Message reads: 'We are with you in sorrow. Life seems colorless right now, but the sun will return.' The word 'will' is pale orange instead of white.

Darkly colored silhouette of a cedar or pine tree with a pale orange crescent moon peeking out behind the branches. You can see the craters on the rest of the moon dimly. Message reads: We send our deepest condolences in this dark time of your life, at the bottom of the page, under the tree.

Black silhouette of a leafless tree with a pale orange full moon peeking out behind the bare branches. Message reads: we sorrow with you, at the bottom of the page, under the tree.

Just uploaded my Moon Sorrow collection of condolence cards in my Etsy shop, www.etsy.com/shop/heathert.

Ack, forgot tags: #art #surfacepatterndesign #surfacedesign #pattern #summerlemon #citrus

A collage of different lemon-inspired fabric patterns. Top left is lemon slices with watercolor leaves, sprinkled with lemon flowers on a light blue background. There are 3 rectangles of a plain, randomly white-speckled pattern on orange, dusky rose, and bright blue backgrounds. There is another pattern with just slices, and one with just whole yellow lemons. The brightest pattern is on a teal background with stylized watercolor leaves, flowers, and green lemons.

Super-happy to share my Lemon Squeeze collection with you! Fabrics on offer at www.spoonflower.com/designs?view...

Green Lemons--a pattern of various little white lemon flowers on a teal background, with watercolor painted leaves in shifting tones of blue, green, and teal. There are little green lemons dotted throughout . There is a "designbyheathert" watermark in the lower right hand corner.

Really pretty!

An abstract painting that looks like a trippy, melting frog face. The color palette is dominated with green hues with pink and red highlights.

"Frog Goes to Helltown" 2024. Acryla-gouache and oil pastel on canvas. 20x24. My last show comprised of these paintings that I consider post-apocalyptic. An imagined world without human interaction. I renamed this one after "Hell Goes to Frog Town."
