About the Artist: Louise Carrie

Louise Carrie is a Mixed Media Artist living and working in the Scottish Borders.  
Louise's work draws from her deep love of the Scottish Countryside, and British Coastlines. Working from memory using; acrylic, oil, wax, slate, gouache, watercolour and pastels. Louise's work can always be found in a variety of galleries and has been featured in House & Garden.

"Inspiration for my work comes from the exceptional scenery around the Scottish Borders where I live and work, Scotland’s wonderful coastline and the Scottish Highlands. When painting I draw from memory of place rather than photographs, unless I am working on a commission.

I love working with Mixed Media, exploring abstract and expressionist styles to produce contemporary art. I enjoy the different textures mixed media creates and the opportunities for design that comes from exploring abstract and expressionist styles of working.

Ten years ago I began working with Slate and Wax. The combination is so exhilarating as it creates a wonderful tapestry of colours due to the mixing and heating process. The Slate, in its raw organic state, lends itself to the Scottish seascapes and landscapes which I try to recreate." Louise Carrie
