Portal Painters presents as Artist of the Month in March Louise Higgins whose paintings celebrate nature’s design. The flowing patterns of the landscape portray a deep connection with the land and its features, presenting the viewer with whimsical stories from the artist’s imaginings.

“My mind constantly wanders to a place where I can see pictures everywhere. I come from a small Ayrshire village, I lived for a while in the city and have now settled in Lanarkshire. The Landscape in the shires has crept into my psyche it seems and my new work has appeared as a world where people and landscape interact. I have started letting my mind wander again after some time away”
