The Artist

​A Peek Into Me

Hi, My Name is Heather Villari



​THE ARTIST...
​​
​AKA Heather Thompson, I have been making art since my undergraduate studies at the University of Pennsylvania where I earned my BA (with a major in fine arts). You may have already read part of my story in the MY WORK section of my portfolio. Essentially, I am an oil painter turned collage artist. Can I still paint? Sure. Do I? Yes. But most of what I do is in the medium of paper collage, or what I refer to as paper paintings.



​THE EDUCATOR... ​

I earned my MSEdu from Neumann University and am a certified K-6 elementary school teacher. Right now, however, my classes are art-driven and include both private and semi-private instruction as well as group classes in both art and art-based technology.
THE ILLUSTRATOR...

Did you see that little bunny on my homepage? He's the main character of the book I wrote and am currently illustrating. I've given you just a sneak-peek into my illustrations and his magical journey. There's more of that so stay-tuned. Bunny has me "glued".

Facts About Me


​I live in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania, where  it is always beautiful. Here even  rain soaked branches glisten with beauty, and that matters to me.  I am inspired by beautiful things and love nature as well as spending time outdoors gardening. There is a hint of that in my work. For me and for all intents and purposes, art is everywhere. It's  that little piece with which you surround yourself, display, wear or even grow that makes the difference between drab and bright. 

Personal notes about me

  • For me, fashion is wearable art. Taking that to a more literal level, I'm hoping soon to have art-based apparel and products for your picking! Look for that coming soon to my store.
  • I've been playing with photoshop for almost 20 years and that's a long time to get to know its interface. My motto? If you can think it, you can do it on Photoshop. I have yet to be stumped. Photoshop is cool so let me know if I can help.
  • If you like this website and want help with yours, let's chat. I won't claim the  web designer hat, but what the heck, this stuff isn't hard and definitely falls under my "art is everywhere" motto.
