Louise Garcia

Born in Johannesburg in 1947, Louise Garcia studied Graphic Design at the Johannesburg School of Art and went on to work in that field for many years. When she retired she took art classes in water colours with Sue Kemp. For the past few years she has painted mainly in Acrylics and dabbles in mixed media. Her contemporary paintings often combine her love of flowers with her love of landscapes. She enjoys painting on larger canvases and uses bold, strong colours. She has sold paintings in the UK and in Canada. She is a member of the Ivy Artists that meet once a week where they paint together and critique each other’s work. They try to exhibit twice a year as a group. She lives in Gauteng with her husband and has two children.
