About the Artisan

Wagga-based artist Heidi Phillpot has been running Quill Fine Art Creations since 2015. Trained as a graphic designer, she blends old-world aesthetics, traditional printmaking, calligraphy, and illustration into refined contemporary design work.

Heidi’s love of art began in childhood, discovering quilling and spending hours drawing, painting, and experimenting with paper. Encouraged by her mother, she developed a strong foundation in fine art long before her formal design training.

Today, supported by her husband and inspired by her creative roots, Heidi brings passion and artistry to every project, crafting meaningful, modern pieces for each client she collaborates with.
