Louise originally trained and worked as a Secondary School
Science Teacher. After juggling full-time teaching with working for
the family bookbinding business something had to give, so she left
education and now works full-time with her husband Stuart. A long
time admirer of marbled paper she took several courses which
started an interest in this amazing and satisfying craft. Louise
spent some time with Ann Muir, whose enthusiasm and great skills
inspired her to take marbling up more seriously. Her papers are
used by bookbinders for book coverings and endpapers.
Louise has transferred her teaching skills to teach adults to
achieve successful results in the fascinating craft of paper
marbling.
