Heather Collis Design

Textured Abstract & Nature-Inspired Art

Explore original paintings, limited edition prints, and artist-designed accessories handcrafted in New York City. Specializing in signature impasto topography, my work ranges from immersive large-scale canvases to 3×3 miniature works of art.

Based in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, my studio produces tactile, mixed-media pieces that bridge the gap between raw emotional expression and the grounding textures of the natural world.

About the Work

Whether building intense dimension or working on fluid, smooth surfaces, my art is completely guided by the natural world.

For my signature textured pieces, I use palette knives, sculptural layering techniques, and a mix of acrylic mediums to create surfaces that catch light differently throughout the day — so the art you hang on your wall is never quite the same piece twice. In contrast, my smoother, layered works focus on rich color blending and fine, organic lines.

Across all styles, my abstract work draws from organic forms: topographic landscapes, cellular patterns, and the quiet geometry found in nature. My nature-inspired series captures that same energy more directly, translating the weight of bark, stone, and water into paint.

This is handmade art — not mass-produced, not printed on demand. Each original painting leaves my Brooklyn studio as a one-of-a-kind object.

Collector Peace of Mind. Because every piece is a one-of-a-kind original, all sales are final. However, if your artwork ever arrives damaged from transit, contact me immediately so I can make it right.

Why Buy Directly from the Artist

When you shop at Heather Collis Design, you're buying directly from the person who made the work. That means your questions get answered by me, your order is packed by me, and the story behind every piece is something I can tell you myself. No middlemen, no markups, no mystery.

🐾 A quick note on quality control: The only surprise may be a few cat hairs, but we know exactly where they came from! My two cats, Zina and Zizi, are very involved in the studio process and occasionally "help" pack an order.

If you're looking for something specific — a particular size, color palette, or a custom piece for your home — reach out. I love working with people to find or create exactly the right fit.
