\"\"Living in locations as varied as England, Texas and British Columbia has given Louise plenty of inspiration for her landscapes.<\/p>\n

To create her paintings she first stretches a piece of silk in a hoop, then renders background elements of the composition using a small brush and silk paint.<\/p>\n

Once the painting has been fixed with an iron, Louise embroiders foreground elements of the landscape, most often by hand. \u00a0Some pieces also feature free motion machine embroidery, or scraps of hand-painted ribbon or Tyvek.\u00a0 The effect is somewhere between two- and three-dimensional and with a sheen unique to silk and thread.<\/p>\n

Louise is a member of Craft Council of British Columbia<\/a> and\u00a0West Vancouver Community Arts Council<\/a>.\u00a0 She lives in Burnaby, Canada, with her husband.<\/p>\n

Her work is offered for sale at CCBC Shop & Gallery<\/a> on Granville Island, Vancouver, BC.<\/p>\n
