H. Gorlitz Scott

Award winning author and artist, H. Gorlitz Scott was born somewhere between orange groves and raised amongst the alligator people of America’s most phallic of states – Australia Lite. There, she and her sentient hair have taken to drawing a land of make believe to live in so that she did not become one of the zombie hoard.

 

This hobby turned fully-professional after she and her husband spawned a swamp elf that constantly needs to be fed. In addition to creating the world of Sivoa, Scott has provided illustrations for companies such as Rose Portal Games, THGC Publishing, and REDFeather MBS (an Imprint of Schiffer Publishing).

 

Not wanting to leave the make-believe adventures of her early life behind, she turned to writing them down; a process that was significantly faster, and more effective, than interpretive dance (which she is terrible at).

 

Scott continues to write, draw, and stare at spaceships from her home in Orlando, Florida to this day.

"Heather is a talented illustrator and a professional. I have worked with her on various projects for local conventions. She works hard and takes her craft seriously. She is also friendly and engaging with both colleagues and clientele."

"Heather Scott is a very easy to get along person who loves doing what she does. Her prices are very easy to work with and I will definitely use her more then once."

 - Dora Gonzalez, Freelance Artist and Writer at Weblight Dreams

 

"Heather brought a brilliant energy (and energetic form of computer-savvy brillance) to her work in the newsroom of the student newspaper The Valencia Source, which I advised. The newsroom was in dire need of a computer tech, and Heather was ready to be that person and so much more. During her time with us, she learned an entire new journalism skillset and quickly emerged as a newsroom leader." 

 - Chris Evans, Clinical Assistant Professor of Journalism at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

 

"Heather and I have worked comic cons and have participated on discussion panels together in the past, and I find her to be a highly talented and gifted artist/writer with the heart and soul of a entrepreneur.

"She a joy to be around and has a vast knowledge and experience as a independent artist and is always willing to share her ideas, creativity and guidance with others.

"She is by far one of the most dedicated and giving artist I've had the pleasure of sharing a stage with."

 - Carlos Castellanos, Syndicated Cartoonist. Helping Illustrators and Cartoonist Increase Their Incomes. Founder of DrawnBySuccess.com

 

Heather Scott was instrumental to the completion of my literary project, a children’s book titled “Captain Halloween.” Heather’s professionalism and high-quality artistry and graphics resulted in my short story being sold in local Borders and other St. Louis area bookstores, in addition to a point-of-sale website. From my point of view, Heather’s work comes with the highest recommendation.

 - Michael Spiroff,  Author
