The younger Heine attended Capilano College in North Vancouver, and then travelled for a time in Europe before setting his hand to mural painting. He has been part of mural painting in Fort Saskatchewan, Vegreville and Fort McMurray, Alberta. In 1986, he was responsible for two murals for the US Pavilion at Expo ’86 in Vancouver.
