Naturally a portrait artist she has more recently
developed her leanings in that field to work
inspirationally, reaching into the depths of the subconscious
mind and utilizes a
variety of different materials to create recognizable images
whilst exploring a wide range of colour;
lines; shapes; light and shade.
It is then up to individual interpretation as to the
meaning behind the works
Louise is a local artist with a unique
individuality. Her
experimental and creative approach to life is reflected in her
work
Since gaining her degree has
focussed specifically on arts in the community and in bringing
all aspects of arts and performance into one spiritual
experience
