Louise Fenne
Artist Statement
"I work quite intuitively, letting the process itself decide what happens on the canvas, using the model, birds or other props as well as thoughts on color combinations as a starting point. The result expresses a search for harmony and inner peace in the way we relate to ourselves, other living beings and our natural surroundings."
