Heidi Wienike
Frustration drove me into the art store for my initial art supplies in 2005. I had exhausted my gallery search for an original landscape painting for the dining room. I had never painted but decided to give it a whirl. To my surprise my first canvas was ‘hangable’. It still hangs as my daily reminder to, “Be brave, try something new!”
More than a decade later I continue to be self-taught through experimentation. I create visually engaging and tactile complex abstract landscape and abstract paintings. My paintings are distinctively textured, painted with acrylics and later sealed with high-gloss epoxy resin. I have been commissioned on client projects since 2009. My paintings can be found in various private and corporate collections. Summer 2022 I decided to expand my studio-gallery and moved from mid-town Toronto to Northumberland’s gem, Brighton, Ontario. Situated on the doorstep of Presqu’il Provincial Park and Prince Edward County, my collectors are now able to view my paintings while soaking in views of Lake Ontario. heidiwienike.com instagram.com/heidiwienike facebook.com/HeidiWienikeVisualArtist heidi@heidiwienike.com (416) 436-9101 Location No.11: 148 Elizabeth Street, Brighton Directions: North side of Elizabeth St. (Cty Rd. 2), across from Tim Horton's and NoFrills.
