In her Minneapolis studio, artist Heather Renaux specializes in unique Pet Portraits and Family Trees. Her style and wide-ranging subject matter also allow her to disappear into circus tents, dip beneath turbulent sea waters and slip into story nests inhabited by magical fauna. You can view some of these enchanting works at HeatherRenaux.com.
Renaux trained as an illustrator, receiving her BFA from Otis-Parsons in Los Angeles, CA (‘Parsons’ sound familiar, Project Runway fans?). Since then she’s built a following for her Folk Surrealism paintings via her online shop, gallery exhibits, and summer art festivals. She was the featured artist at the Uptown Art Fair 2014 and the Mount Dora Art Festival 2011.
She toggles between real life, chores like shuttling the kids around in her sexy minivan, and creating enchanted dream worlds. Most days she feels like the luckiest woman alive because she’s living her dream of being a full-time artist.
