Heather Aldo raised her children in Southbury and now resides in Torrington, Connecticut. Over the past four to five years, she has devoted herself to creating art, exploring different mediums, and developing her unique artistic voice. Creativity has always been a central part of Heather’s life, along with her natural teaching spirit.
She has spent many years working with children—through raising her own family, in school arts & craft workshops, within her church community, and even running a home daycare in Southbury for several years. Now, Heather channels that same nurturing and guiding energy into her art practice. When she isn’t painting, she looks forward to sharing her passion with others by offering workshops where adults can learn to paint, relax, and enjoy the creative process with friends.
Heather’s work includes both functional art and canvas paintings, which she sells at local events and through several retail gift shops across Connecticut. Her website features her portfolio as well as a list of locations where her art can be purchased. Beginning in October, Heather is thrilled to expand her teaching opportunities at VSG, Vicinanza Galleries and Studios, where she will continue inspiring others to explore their own creativity.
