Heidi Dinius
Teaching Artist in Visual Arts
Heidi Dinius is a multidisciplinary artist whose passion comes from celebrating life’s little joys and sharing that pleasure with others, primarily through acrylic painting and mini hand-sewn felt objects and animals. She was recognized as a Gold Key Portfolio winner by the Northeast Florida Scholastic Art Awards and won many other awards in high school. She then graduated from Flagler College with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a minor in illustration. When she isn’t pursuing all things artistic, Heidi is out scouring the beach for fossils, walking or biking the neighborhood and spending time with family. She joined CAP as a part-time teaching artist in 2024.
