Hi there.
I'm Louise: a Swedish watercolor artist, writer, birder, art teacher, and creative business coach.
I've spent my entire adult life avoiding traditional employment and instead making a living off of my creativity in various ways. Everything from co-founding a creative tech start-up, being a web designer, and freelancing as a journalist & copywriter, to working as an actor, singing at weddings, and selling non-fiction books, short stories, physical products, art courses, and original artworks.
Here, I talk about everything I've learned (the hard way) on my journey: About figuring yourself out, and finding focus (even if you're torn in a million directions.) About writing and art making and learning a creative craft. About art as a self-care practice. Dealing with the fears and anxieties of the creative life. Making a living on your creativity in sustainable ways that don't burn you out or kill your soul. And much, much more.
Welcome. Make yourself at home. 🖤
