Heather Lawrie lives on a lake beside crown land in Gilmour, Ontario, surrounded by nature. She is a visionary artist who transforms the beauty of nature into exquisite wearable decorative art and home décor items. Her creations are a harmonious blend of natural materials, native vegetation, and eco-friendly dyes, all brought to life through the captivating art of Botanical Printing.
The science behind the dyes and the mystical connection to nature in her work have a profound hold on Heather's creativity. Drawing knowledge and technical skills from textile artists around the world, she learned to coax leaves into imprinting their intricate designs on fabrics, paper, and leather, a process that never ceases to amaze her.
Heather Lawrie's botanical printing technique entails the use of natural materials embellished with leaves, onion skins, seed pods, and bark, all meticulously bundled tightly together. By employing heat and natural dyes, the colors and shapes derived from nature are skillfully transferred directly onto the materials, resulting in the creation of truly distinctive, one-of-a-kind designs. Each piece serves as a unique manifestation of nature's creativity.
A wonderful assortment of merino wool and silk scarves and home decor await the cooler weather to remind you of nature’s bounty right around the corner.
