About the Item

Anne Sargent Walker's "Getting Warmer" is an oil and acrylic painting with a halo of soft greens on a yellow green background with snippets of orange, suggesting foliage, surrounding a pair of exquisitely painted birds. Painted on stretched canvas, and unframed, it is initialed in the lower right corner, and signed on the back. The edges are painted a dark neutral. Anne Sargent Walker’s semi-abstract paintings on canvas or panel combine oil, acrylic and often collage to explore the beauty and fragility of the natural world and our complicated relationship to it. Her colorful images often feature birds and other animals in a naturalistic setting whose surfaces appear to peel or degrade revealing underlying layers of paint, pattern or collage. Whether the paintings are quite realistic or done with pop-like silhouettes in flat colors, Walker strives for beauty in her paintings. Her use of hot colors and fragmented, degraded, or dripping surfaces, however, suggest loss: of habitat, species, and even of ourselves. She is represented by Fountain Street Gallery in Boston, MA.
