Artist’s Statement

Art as Portals to the Unseen

Heather Dawn Batchelor views her art as portals into other dimensions, exploring moments where clarity meets chaos and divine meets everyday. Influenced by renowned abstract expressionists like Jackson Pollock and Adolph Gottlieb, her artwork embraces both spontaneity and deliberate structure. Moreover, vibrant colors and symbolic elements convey life’s continuous tension between chaos and order, darkness and light. Specifically, vertical lines symbolize energy and life force, while horizontal aspects offer peace and contemplation.

Her series, such as “Portals of Perception” and “Colorful Points of Clarity,” act as gateways inviting viewers to transcend reality, exploring realms of transformation, renewal, and humanity’s eternal quest for meaning. Significantly, Heather Dawn Batchelor finds personal meaning in her faith in Christ, capturing glimpses of the divine in everyday life and sharing these spiritual encounters through her abstract expressionist artwork.

Capturing the Extraordinary in the Ordinary

For Heather Dawn Batchelor, art transcends mere beauty, aiming instead to reveal spiritual, unseen, and eternal truths. Her deeply personal pieces document her spiritual journey, interactions with the divine, and reflections on life’s mysteries. Through abstract expressionism, she inspires others to recognize the extraordinary hidden within everyday experiences, emphasizing unseen realities and divine guidance.

“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” — 2 Corinthians 4:18

Batchelor studied art abroad and at the Herron School of Art, enriching her vibrant and spiritually profound artistic practice.
