About the Artist
Heather Smith
I am an artist and maker based in Newfoundland and Labrador. I practice printmaking, fibre arts, painting and illustration. My work is influenced by the natural beauty of the ocean, the island and the spirit of the people who live here.
Thank you for taking time to visit my little corner of the interwebs.
Why Dumpling Cove?
My Dad grew up in Twillingate, Newfoundland near a little beach called Dumpling Cove. I love being able to keep the land in our family and having this connection to my family history and my grandparents (who passed away before I was born). When I returned to Newfoundland in 2021 to be closer to family and spend more time on my art, it seemed fitting to use it in my studio’s name.
