Burnt oranges, vibrant azure, and native grevilleas, create a fun and whimsical homage to the colours of summer. I like the warm colours all year around.
About the Artist
The inventor of the imagined 'obsessive creative disorder' Sarah Walker has creativity in her veins, and paints fruit symbolically, obsessively, and in a riot of colour, as a way to understand life, trauma, death, hope, and all the plethora of her human experience in between. Sarah Walker, an emerging artist from Toowoomba, creates deep, colourful, and quirky paintings to connect with people. Art has been a part of her life since childhood, helping her cope with trauma and express herself. Her still life works capture the beauty and impermanence of life, using vibrant colours to explore themes of life, death, trauma, and healing. She combines her original piano compositions with abstract paintings and integrates other creative disciplines like embroidery and collage. Influenced by Kandinsky, Dali, and Jeffrey Smart, Sarah breaks traditional colour theory rules to complement her symbolic pieces. She has been featured in major group exhibitions, has a solo exhibition, and won a “best in show” award at the Darling Downs mental health week exhibition.
