Louise Allen
Artist, teacher. (She/her)
I am an artist specialising in printmaking, mainly intaglio methods such as collagraph. My prints are based on detailed observational drawings, I do life drawing regularly and the figure features in my work along with other themes related to the environment.
My initial training was as a graphic and interior designer and I worked in these fields before becoming a teacher of Media Studies and Art and design at St Wilfrid’s Catholic Highschool in North Featherstone. Since leaving teaching I have undertaken an MA in creative practice at Leeds arts university to develop my printmaking practice.
Opportunities to exhibit, commissions, collaborations, workshops for adults.
Working with dancers or athletes to develop the theme of movement in my print making.
