Heidi
M. Lorenz was born in Muenchweiler, Germany December
18, 1965. Heidi spent her childhood predominately in
the United Kingdom where magnificent coastline & country
life enthused her sensibility toward art, horses, & the
sea. Heidi re-reads "Black Beauty" by Anna
Sewell over & over in awe of the illustrated pages
that shaped her initial artistic impression. Summers
were often spent
in the United States where Heidi’s grandfather & father
furthered an art interest by exposing Heidi to their
alternative style pen & inks. Heidi’s parents
encouraged the 
philosophy
that; "One’s life is purely what
one makes it!" As a minor Heidi would hike several
miles to visit the local "Red House Museum" in
order to experience authentic works of art. As a teenager
Heidi traveled further a field to view original oils
by artist Lucy Kemp-Welch at the "Russell-Cotes
Museum" & eventually
as a young adult Heidi would encounter first hand the
vast art & cultural scene of London, Paris, & many
other great cities!
In
1985 Heidi studied business at Brockenhurst College,
Southampton. Heidi relocated to the United States
in 1986 supporting strong British influence & work experience
in the graphic arts. While in the United States Heidi gained
a Bachelor of Psychology & began art education at the
University of NH in 1995. Heidi traveled the United States
and Canada for several years and in 1998 settled down to
private study with renowned maritime artist Christopher
James Ward. Further, in 2002 Heidi joined Boston School
painter Dan Helgemo at the Ateljé Helgemo.
Currently, Heidi studies with acclaimed Barbizon
painter Dennis Sheehan.
