Aloha! My name is Heather Brown and I am a local artist on the North Shore of Oahu.
I have received my Bachelors in Fine Arts from the University of Hawaii at Manoa with an emphasis in printmaking.
As an ambassador for Foam Magazine and "Artist of the Search" for Rip Curl, I am proud to represent women surfers and artists.
Most of my inspiration comes from my love for the sea, nature, popular surf breaks, and the beauty of the islands.
