Summer Burn. In an ideal world for children, all is glorious as summer days pass in the burning hot sunshine. The exact memories are erased, as are the details of the original photograph this image is based on, but the contrasting color combinations create high energy and intense feeling. There is a a sense of immediacy and impulsivity with large color washes blending together, seemingly at random. The next moment these gals could turn on one another and get in a spat- only to be forgotten with another rotation of a hula hoop. Fun and leisure find an oasis in Colleen Walsh's abstract sceneries and relationships flourish amongst saturated hues. Utilizing the aura of good times and love documented in found imagery, Walsh’s paintings elaborate on the visual narrative and appeal to the universal experience of creating ones own peace and fun in recreation. Colleen Walsh paints new works of art, picking up where a photographer left off, from her decades-old, ever expanding collection of other people's photographs.

Fun and leisure find an oasis in her abstract sceneries and relationships flourish amongst saturated hues. Utilizing the aura of good times and love documented in found imagery, Walsh’s paintings elaborate on the visual narrative and appeal to the universal experience of the human condition. Colleen Walsh paints new works of art, picking up where a photographer left off, from her decades-old, ever expanding collection of other people's photographs. Colleen Walsh (b.1982) is a fine artist and maker thriving on the Southside of Chicago. Her paintings are mixed media, ranging from spray paint to oils. Her work weaves figures into abstract atmospheres, that vibrate with saturated pinks, blues, and neon colors (among others). These colors serve as a beacon of joy amidst winter months, temper tantrums, and the volatile politics of our time. A constant inspiration for her work is extended family, friends, and dogs (who live in close proximity). Walsh’s work revolves around the themes of relationships, family dynamics, and beauty in mundanity. Her studio, in the basement of her single-family home, is a haven where she works away from her full-time parenting job. Her dogs keep her feet warm and her work intends to stay on the sunny side of life.
