Lou Dunipace loudunipace.com loudunipace_art Artist and parent, Lou Dunipace, painted a portrait of Sister Wendy Bull to celebrate International Nurses Day as part of ‘Portraits for NHS Heroes’ when she returned to frontline nursing during Lockdown 1. Lou completed her Fine Art degree in the mid 90’s, with a Bristol degree show, showcasing collagraph print works influenced by her Erasmus year spent in Barcelona. Lou turned down a post graduate degree to apprentice with specialist painters Bernard Bates and Eric Rawlins; “I was so fortunate to learn from these two master craftsman. Watching Bernard paint a mahogany feather with his thumb and a rag was pure old school genius.” For the next 15 years, Lou had a specialist painting business in London working with interior designers and private clients. During the last 15 years living in Oxfordshire, Lou has built up a broad artistic portfolio working in Oil; from En plein air works in the Highlands, Cornwall, Marrakesh and beyond, to big abstracted works in her studio.
