About

Natalia Heiser was born in the Midwest with a heart for the west.  The first time she saw the mountains was on a road trip from IL to CO and knew she wanted them to be a part of her daily life.  After receiving her BA of Science with a Fine Art emphasis from Illinois State University in 2006 she made plans and moved to CO.  She put her creativity to work at a kitchen and bath showroom where she worked closely with interior designers, builders and architects.  Natalia worked on projects of all design styles but quickly fell in love with the clean, simple, and timeless lines of modern design.  After 7 years in CO she found herself making the trek to the Pacific Northwest.  It was here that her inspiration was ignited as she started making art using reclaimed wood for the Chevron Series.  After looking at quilt patterns and different geometric designs for inspiration she started to see how she could combine some of the elements that she loved. She started seeing the complexity of mountain ranges and trees in a new light and drew them with geometric lines and shapes. Her sketches and experimentation with line revealed another body of work more nonrepresentational containing abstract fractal patterns and mesmerizing movement.  Natalia Heiser's work has become a marriage between modern design and nature. Her wood pieces connect the warmth of a natural element to the sterile dance of her fractal drawings while her landscape and nature art symbolize the forms that are made up of natures complexities.
