Heggestad is a non-traditional printmaker who is not interested in creating multiples, which is the typical definition of the medium. She is drawn to the endless potential for variations offered by printmakers. Her mixed-media prints are one-of-a-kind works that begin with a limited number of collagraphic plates.
