Heather started intarsia sometime during 1996 but did not start experimenting with carving until 1998.  

Heather's stylized dolphins.

Heather is a very talented artist and has produced many fine works.  She entered her first competition at the International Wood Carvers Congress at Davenport, IA in June of 2001.  She came away with a second place finish in plaques with the State of Illinois seal pictured with Heather above.   Not bad for first competition in an international event.

Since then Heather has entered this piece in other competitions and received best in show honors.  Below is a larger picture of the piece.
