Hi, I’m Heather — artist, engineer, and founder of Heather Marie Studios.

By day, I’m a civil engineering designer shaping the city. By heart, I’m an artist capturing the places that shape us. My studio is where structure meets soul — a creative space where architecture and art collide in bright, story-filled ways.

I’ve always been drawn to buildings — the lines, the layers, the quiet ways they hold memories. Through watercolor, acrylic, and mixed media, I bring that to life in custom house portraits, venue paintings, and collections inspired by the built environment. Whether it’s a cozy bungalow, a sprawling campus, or your wedding chapel, I love turning personal spaces into lasting pieces of art.

Heather Marie Studios was born from a love of celebrating the meaningful — the chapters, the milestones, the places that make life home. When I’m not sketching or painting, you’ll find me exploring Charlotte’s creative scene, sipping something iced, or dreaming up new ways to bring more color into the world.

Thanks for being here. Let’s make something beautiful together.
