Heidi Cowen
My claim to fame on this little Island of Bermuda……..
I am the granddaughter of a Lighthouse Keeper. I come from a long line of Lighthouse Keepers (Gibbs Hill Lighthouse) and am a 5th generation Bermudian. My grandfather was the last of the last lighthouse keepers before Gibbs Hill went electronic, and I grew up in the house that is attached to lighthouse. I love my Island home and thrive on capturing it on canvas. Some of the best moments are painted on a quiet summer evening.
I belong to a Plein Air group that meets every Sunday morning and paints at various locations on the Island. This is a great way to see old houses & properties and learn some interesting history. The help and encouragement received from other artists is important and encouraging.
I am administrator of the Arts Centre at Dockyard which enhances my creative outlook every day.
Heidi Cowen has an enjoyable color pallet. I will be visiting the island and may like to return home with a painting or watercolor.
Is there a place on the island to view? Is there a website?
thank you
