The Party behind the pain

Lou deliberately steers clear of structure when creating her work in favour of a more painterly style, inviting the viewer to gaze freely across the painting and bring their own experience to what they see. Her bold, textured works are created in a combination of media including oils, oil pastels and gold leaf on canvas and linen.

Vibrant yet peaceful, Lou’s landscape pieces portray those places where she can be isolated, away from the chaos of city life, and the colour, composition and style betray her lifelong passion for the French Impressionists. Often these landscapes evolve naturally into abstracted versions of themselves, and with these works, she chooses to explore shape and form to create - and then solve – what she describes as ‘an aesthetically pleasing puzzle’.
