Louise Greig was born in Timaru. She drew and painted as a child, but abandoned art after the sixth form. After an MA (hons) in English at Canterbury University and a BA in Psychology from Victoria, she worked in consumer research and then as an advertising strategist at Saatchi & Saatchi and Colenso BBDO. For the last five years she has home-schooled her two daughters. In 2008-9 she took some art classes and in 2010 began to paint.

Louise Greig says of her passion "When I was young I loved to draw and paint people but I guess I realised quite early on that my tastes and interests were out of step with contemporary art. I have always been very strongly drawn to Renaissance art, icons and the beautiful dark paintings of the Baroque era with the human form emerging from the shadows."
