    Heidis work is constantly evolving and draws upon many influences; from fine art to folk art and the everyday handmade. Her figurative works in sculpture are modern day folk art. There is no single definition of what folk art is, but the definition that resonates with Heidi the most is as defined by the Museum of International Folk Art in Santa Fe, New Mexico: Folk art is “of, by, and for the people; all people, inclusive of class, status, culture, community, ethnicity, gender, and religion.”

    She deeply identify with this definition, and believe that it speaks to the totems/Protector people that she makes. But beyond being artful pieces, Heidi sees  her Protector people as spirit beings; as altars and/or totems that serve as an emblem of the importance of nature and our relationship to it, and the sense of connection and appreciation that I derive from being in nature. I see them uniting the animal and the spiritual, as well as the earthly with the mystical.

    The Ceramic Head Vases are one-of-a-kind and may vary from pictured.Each one has thier own personality and character!  Handmade by local LA artist, Heidi Anderson.
