What people are saying...

Heather is the Reason I'm a Fluid Artist

- Andy W

"Heather is the reason I am a fluid acrylic artist. I’ve watched every one of her tutorials and have learned the vast amount of techniques she has presented. I’ve learned about paint color choices as well. She is constantly evolving in her art and has inspired me to try new projects."

Heather Brings Something Magical & Unique

Kimberly S

"Heather Mader brings something magical and unique to fluid art and mixed media. She’s a giving and thorough teacher who is well worth the reasonable class cost to learn how to take your art to the next level! She is mindful and experienced with composition and color selection, which makes her courses valuable to your growth as an artist."

Amazing Art & Tutorials

Caroline P

"Heather Mader was one of the first people I started following on YouTube. Her art and tutorials are amazing. She takes the time to fully explain her techniques and materials used. It shows that she absolutely loves what she’s doing 😃 I’ve learnt so much from Heather in the past 2 1/2 years, and love to try and replicate some of her fluid art. She is an awesome teacher and makes you feel at ease asking questions, which she takes time to answer. She gives as much compliments as she gives advice when asked. "

Encouraging & Friendly & Always There to Help

Gillian K

"Heather is an absolutely fantastic artist & teacher. I’ve learnt so much from her. She takes time to explain and is encouraging and friendly. Her art is outstanding. No matter what time of the day it may be she’s always there to help."

She Taught Me to Be Open to Experimenting

Earlene C

"Heather has taught me to be open to experimenting with various mediums and to put myself and my work out there. (She) has always been graciously open to communicating and helping me with any and all problems or questions I have."

Well Presented & Easy to Follow

Heather T

"Heather's classes are so well presented, easy to follow and everything you need is explained. I've created some beautiful alcohol ink embellished pieces from her courses."

Diversified, Authentic, Talented, Visionary

Nancy A. W.

"Heather embodies "the creative creator ". So true. When you're an artist, always creating something yourself, you are drawn to the one or two other artists who embody magic. Heather is magical. She is also a kindred spirit who brings out the very best in others, including me. Diversified, authentic, talented, a visionary. Thank goodness for Heather Mader."
