Louise Dougherty Woods between the worlds, 2024 Watercolour on paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About Louise Dougherty is a contemporary landscape artist living and working in Norfolk, England. Discovering a deeper connection absorbs her artistic practice. She walks and records her surroundings to explore the metaphor between landscapes and life experiences. Recording the conflicting differences between being absorbed with the delicacy and power of the female experience contrasted or linked to the rhythms of the skies and landscape. Her work continually investigates how she connects to the landscape, whether through memory, physicality, or spirituality.

Reflection, new light, growth, and quiet calm. The haunting quality of the woodland immediately evoked CS Lewis's The Magician's Nephew and the wood between our world and others. I wanted to explore the ideas of possibility, new beginnings, and hope. I used watercolour to capture the light and the subtlety of the textures.
