Louise Forshaw

I am busy for 5 months please book me in.
Louise was born in 1987 - most likely with a pencil in her hand! Her passion for drawing started at around 4 years old. Nothing was safe from her coloured pencils! She spent most of her childhood watching cartoons and drawing comics to give to her favourite teachers. She went on to graduate from Newcastle College in 2008 with a BA Hons in Illustration and Animation, in which she achieved a 2:1. After leaving College, she volunteered at a local gallery where she was able to showcase her work and work alongside other artists such as Simon Donald, co-founder of the British comic magazine, Viz. Louise currently lives with her Fiancé in a small town in the North East just outside Newcastle upon Tyne. She works from home in a small studio being supervised by three noisy and very naughty Jack Russell TerriersView Full Bio
