Louise Schofield
Born in Yorkshire, Louise Schofield has always been surrounded by the beauty of nature. Her childhood summers were spent exploring the coast, delving into rockpools and caves, and running through fields, seeking shade in the nearby woodlands. This early immersion in nature profoundly influenced her artistic vision.
After leaving art college, Louise began selling her artwork from a stall in her local shopping centre. Her live compositions of pets and wildlife drew regular crowds, captivated by her talent and the life she breathed into her subjects. However, after the birth of her daughter in 2001, Louise chose to focus on motherhood, dedicating herself to providing a childhood as freeing and idyllic as her own.
In recent years, Louise has rekindled her passion for art, creating stunning pieces in her home studio. Her work, inspired by her extensive world travels, reflects the diverse beauty of nature. She has exhibited at various arts and crafts events across the country, earning acclaim for her evocative and expressive style.
Now, teaming up with her daughter, Louise co-founded Schofield Studios, a family-run online gallery. Together, they showcase collections of art that immerse viewers in the vibrant colours and intricate textures of the natural world. Each piece tells a unique story, inviting audiences to escape the mundane and explore the wonders of nature through Louise's masterful brushstrokes.
