She was the daughter of the engraver Auguste Danse who was her first teacher. Her sister Marie Danse was also a painter. Her mother was the sister of the painter Constantin Meunier. Louise was a painter but is better known for her etchings, which were published by her husband, the publisher Robert Sand (1876-1936).

Her etching Portrait of Mlle. Dethier, was included in the 1905 book Women Painters of the World.[2]
