I work in acrylic, oils and watercolour. I'm crazy about "shiny" so I am increasingly using silver and gold leaf in my work. My favourite subject matter is birds, with botanical themes as a background. Chinoiserie style is a strong influence for me, I adore historic hand painted chinese wallpapers, and the work of modern day designers like DeGournay. My Caribbean childhood inspires my love of vivid colours, jungle foliage and exotic tropical themes. If you'd like to discuss a bespoke commission then do email louisedeanartist@louisedeanartist.store
