Details About Gouache, watercolor, and colored pencil 8 x 12 in. © 2024 Framing included France based artist and illustrator Lou Benesch grew her artistic practice from a foundatio n of blending cultures, after spending her childhood between France and America. Inspired by her adoration for nature and folk tales, Lou’s creations are an enchanted mix of plants, animals, anatomy, and mythological creatures. The vivid water-coloured surreal compositions give an insight into her mystical imagination, expressing the duality of universal themes and personal ideas of the world. With images coming to her almost as visions and an indescribable pull to record them, the uniqueness of her art speaks to the instinctual process in which they are formed. Lou’s work has been showcased throughout the world, with shows in the United States and Europe. Her mythical and visionary artwork was brought to life in pieces of fashion through collaborations with Australian brand Alemais and French department store Printemps Haussmann. Blending her love of music and literature with her creations, Lou has crafted pieces to adorn the world of musicians Wolf Alice and Khruangbin, as well as the cover of the New York Times Book Review.
