Artist - Louise Marks

★ Available in the Gallery

Born and raised in Durham, substantially more than 21 years ago, Louise now lives and works in Edinburgh.

Although art has always been a joy, working in Primary Education was the focus for many years both in this country and abroad. Two years ago she decided to commit to furthering her art knowledge, hone her oil painting technique and spend quality time with a paintbrush in her hand and paint drips on her clothes and in her hair (so much like Primary School teaching but without the glitter). This year her work was displayed in the Royal Scottish Open Exhibition in Edinburgh. Other works continues to be shown and sold throughout the United Kingdom.

Louise loves painting a piece that combines, through the delicious buttery qualities of oil, the portrayal of reality skills with undulating edges. A range of subjects are covered, however at the heart of it all the subject is always something truthful.
