Heather Goldstein

Heather Goldstein graduated from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting with a minor in Art History and a Bachelor of Science Business Administration in Marketing. She now resides in Raleigh, North Carolina where she works as the Vice President of Artist Resources at Jerry’s Artarama. While continuing to paint, she works to offer more to artists and better the art community as a whole. A self-proclaimed “people watcher,” Heather is interested in social interactions, or lack thereof, with people outside our own social “bubble.” She questions the validity of the quick judgments that we make of others and stick to wholeheartedly. Although she often refers to her characters as “creepers,” she stands by their sympathetic nature. “I do not paint to make people uncomfortable. I paint to make people think!”
