About the Artist

Artist, Louise Dusinberre, hunts for her subjects in the disappearing landscapes of Maryland’s Eastern Shore and Chester County Pennsylvania.

Known for her poetic scenes touched with a mood of loneliness, she has found the pastel medium to be an evocative tool to express her images.

Rural America is a far cry from the fast paced fashion world, where as a Senior Designer for Putumayo, a New York clothing company, she traveled extensively through India, Indonesia, and Europe. While gathering inspiration for seasonal collections, Louise was also gathering a love of color, line and texture.

That love would become incorporated in her award winning pastels, often exhibited  at The Wayne Art Center, the Devon Horse Show, and galleries on Maryland's Eastern Shore.

"I came to love the paintings of Fairfield Porter, Wolf Kahn, Richard Diebenkorn and Henri Matisse, all of whom have clean luminous color and strong design".

Louise earned her BA in Graphic Design from the Moore College of Art and Design in 1989.

She has served on the faculty of the Wayne Art Center for fourteen years focusing on drawing, printmaking and collage. She teaches privately as well, with studio and online instruction.

Louise is represented by Bishop's Stock Gallery, Snow Hill, Maryland.
