Louise Brook is a multidisciplinary artist, based on the Northamptonshire / Oxfordshire border in the UK. Having developed two distinct areas of specialism and portfolios (abstract and wildlife) she split her business in 2023 to better serve her clients and customers.
Louise Brook Creative represents the abstract side of her practice in which she uses layers of acrylic paint and mixed media to create rich texture and visual interest, whilst inviting the viewer on a journey to explore a contemporary narrative or more complex overarching theme. Since moving out of London to focus solely on her artistic career her work has continued to evolve and these bold, exciting abstract works have become her predominant focus.
Louise describes her inspiration as a broad, natural curiosity, combined with a love of nature. Ideas are drawn from an exciting variety of sources ranging from current affairs to academic research, as well as the natural surroundings which she is passionate about preserving for future generations. Using storytelling and discovery, Louise creates an accessible narrative with the intention to inform and intrigue, sparking interest, curiosity, and conversation. Recent achievements include being a Highly Commended Finalist in the Society of All Artists Artist of the Year Award 2024, Longlisted for the Visual Artist’s Association Artist of the Year Award 2024 and 2023 and the Longlisted in the Visual Arts Open 2023. She has also been awarded a place on the prestigious 2024 New Platform Art Professional Development Programme.
