Louise Speakman is a traditional beadwork artist who creates contemporary looks. She particularly loves making beaded earrings, incorporating caribou tufting, quillwork, and smoked hides in her designs. A Sahtu Got’ine artist living in Yellowknife, she started beading in 2021 with the help and support from family and friends. After sharing her artwork on social media, Louise started selling some of her pieces later that same year.
