Artist Heather Reynolds holding her mandala artwork

Artist Statement

My artwork is all about exploring rhythm, a sense of calm, and movement, but in a quiet, open-ended way. I never really plan out a design before I start. I usually begin with a blank page and a simple grid, then let the design build itself from there. Even if pieces start the same way, they always end up different.

I'm fascinated by how small changes, like the angle of a line or a shift in color, can completely change the feel of a piece. Sometimes I have a general theme in mind, but most of the time I just follow where intuition takes me. I choose colors based on what feels right in the moment, and everything else grows from that.

I really enjoy working with gel pens, there’s something so satisfying about how smooth they are, especially on black paper. The colors almost glow, which brings a special kind of energy to the mandalas.

When I use acrylics, I like to create layered, textured backgrounds that feel rich and expressive. They give the mandala a place to live and interact, where structure and spontaneity meet.

More than anything, I want my art to give people a small pause. A moment of stillness, connection, or inspiration, shared through color, shape, and flow.

My gallery features a rotating selection of pieces.. If a piece speaks to you, be sure to claim it before someone else does, or it returns to the vault: once it's gone, it may not be back for a while.

What Clients Are Saying

David Egan

“I've had the opportunity to photograph this amazing work, and in so doing have examined every bit of its exquisite, intricate detail. To realize that every line has been drawn by hand is simply mind-boggling! The aesthetic beauty of the work-not to mention the precision!- is almost secondary to it's meditative value, both for the maker and the viewer. And unlike the sand mandalas made by Tibetan Buddhist monks that are destroyed once they are completed, this work remains to be viewed and enjoyed. I surely enjoyed looking at it through the camera. I hope you’ll find equal pleasure in viewing it in your home or office!”
