Louise Freir

Louise's story

Louise comes from a creative background and has art running through her veins. Her Gramps was an artist specialising in ceramic clay figures and watercolours. She used to love watching him paint and model when staying there as a child. Louise’s Grandma and mum also made pottery on the wheel and they would all sell their creative works at local craft fairs. Taking a strong interest in architecture (her dad was a bridge designer), Louise enjoys visiting Oxford where she has been known to sit and draw with her husband outside the Radcliffe Camera building. She is also appreciative of the natural world, creating miniature pen and watercolours paintings of the beautiful scenery in Dorset, including the pretty thatched cottages of Milton Abbas where she currently lives. It has always been a dream of Louise’s to open her own art studio and now this has come true! Strawberry Cottage Studio can be found in Milton Abbas and online at StrawberryCottageStudio.com. Many creations are available including watercolours, acrylics, silk paintings, cushions, bags and bunting. Please pop in – Louise would love to see you!
