Louisa Linton

Montpellier, France •
Artist (Painting, Drawing) •
Born 1962 •
At the university of Life, you can speak back to the teacher.

Louisa Linton is a visual artist from Scotland. Just like Van Gogh, she was amazed and seduced by the light in the south of France and so, in 1984, she decided to settle in Montpellier where she has lived and worked ever since.

 Ms Linton holds an B.A. Degree in French from the University of Edinburgh as well as diplomas in Fine Arts and Art Therapy from the University of Montpellier.

After years as an Art Therapist in a centre for children and adolescents with severe learning difficulties, Ms Linton now devotes her time to her own self-expression. She uses her creativity in lots of different ways, including writing, clothes design, gardening and music, but the forms of expression she has been using since she was a child are her favourites: drawing and painting.

Je n'ai que 2 ans de retard mais un grand merci pour ce retour. Le décès de ma maman et peu de temps après, celui de mon papa m'ont flanqué un grand coup à l'âme et j'ai consacré le plus clair de mon temps à la musique. Jusqu'au début de cette année. Oui, j'ai ressorti les pinceaux et travaille actuellement sur une nouvelle série :) Merci encore Louisa
