Heather has her own individual approach to watercolour. She often achieves a depth with several painted layers of intense colour. Some paintings have a dark brooding quality. These however produce a sharp contrast to her other work which is lively and spontaneous, having a freshness more often associated with this medium. She has exhibited nationally, including the Royal Watercolour Society, the Scottish Watercolour Society and The Sunday Times Watercolour Competition
