Louise is a visual artist who has been painting pictures for over 30 years. The body of work she has created during this time reflects a broad range of interests and includes both figurative and abstract works.
Louise lives and works on the Melbourne bayside in Australia. She studied art at Brighton College of Art in the UK, holds a Master’s Degree in visual art from Queensland College of Art and a Diploma in Arts Administration.
My lifelong interests have been in art and design and I am fascinated with the relationship between representation and abstraction. I sometimes use found images as reference in my work and my current work features aerial perspectives of the natural world, including Australia where I work and live as well as places I travel to and those where I have lived in the past.
My current work also focuses on edges such as shorelines: those places where water meets the land. I am interested in aerial views and close-up studies of these magical places, that have drawn us to them since time began.
