Founder Stories

Louise Levine

Working in a light-filled spare room turned studio in England’s sunny south west, artist Louise Levine paints seascapes that speak not just to what the sea looks like, but how it feels — peaceful, vast, and alive.

Here, she shares how art became a source of connection to the coast, to others, and to herself.
