Louise Garrett
Louise Garrett
Louise is both a plein air painter and urban sketcher both of which challenge her to create art in direct response to the location. Subsequent studio work develops from these initial field sketches, paintings and photos. More recently Louise has increasingly shifted towards more expressive mixed media – work that creates both visual excitement for her and a means to communicate an emotional response to the viewer.
Works in this exhibition are the product of many repeated walks in the local area of Harden Moor including old quarry sites and the St Ives estate, particularly the remnants of Betty’s Wood with its gaunt Scots Pines; a powerful statement of survival.
A selection of prints by Louise is also available, priced £40 – £70
