Louise Heymans was born in 1984 in Cologne, Germany.
Studying illustration in Hamburg and Macerata she discovered her passion for art and her engravings have been exposed in national and international galleries. In 2012 her works, selected for the Illustrators Exhibition of the Bologna Children's Book Fair, won the Ars in Fabula Grant Award, allowing her to attend the Ars in Fabula Master in Illustration for publishing, during which she collaborated with the publishing house Orecchio Acerbo and made the book project "Il topo sconsiderato e la gatta cauta", based on the story by James Thurber.
She currently teaches art engraving at the University of Applied Science in Hamburg.
