Heidi Taillefer
Heidi’s work is distinct that is for sure. Her style is detailed and blends classical style with more vogue, modern ideas. She’s not only distinct in her execution, but in her subject matter. Few artists can connect the present with the past like Heidi does. She has taken myths and history and blended a new modern look to them. Heidi’s compositions almost all look like they should have been made during the renaissance, because of their classical style, yet there’s no denying the difference between a work made in renaissance times and a work made in the modern world.
Heidi’s painting and style identify her with a more philosophical crowd. She puts new spins on old age ideas to provoke their points once more. Throughout her work she shows inward attributes of characters outwardly, and this is what defines her style. In her artwork she is stating that the things we do we are. Perhaps not a philosophy I take part in, but it makes for great visual art.
I was attracted to her work, because of the detail and craft that she uses in her art. She not only expresses a point, but does it with precision and detail. Plus her creativity tips her over the edge of an average artist. Above all I am attracted to her painterly capture of her ideas especially the mechanical ones.
