Harriet Hill began painting in 1994 with watercolours transitioning to acrylics in 2019. In workshops she learned how to use the different mediums as well as the different elements of design. As she changed mediums, Harriet also began to shift her style from realism to abstract.


In her career as an elementary teacher, Harriet incorporated art into her classes. Helping students discover their creativity is part of her passion for artistic  expression.


Harriet also designed and created backdrops and props for school musicals and ballet school performances from 1990 to present day.


One of Harriet’s series, Elements of Laughter, is installed in an office in Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, British Columbia.
