Louise Plaatjies has always been inspired by landscapes. Growing up
surrounded by the extraordinary vistas of South Africa, her art seeks to
capture both the scale and the beauty of those views, and the views she's
experienced around the world. Using big, bold, and bright brushstrokes
and pallet knives, Plaatjies hopes her pieces will transport people to a
place of inspiration and imagination.
Driven by a desire to help people to remember and seek out beauty,
Plaatjies’ paintings allow her to express her deepest passion. Her work
celebrates the wonder of nature, through memories of Africa, the
landscapes she's encountered, and the majesty of creation.
It's about capturing those places where the land and sky seem to go on
forever."
