2020

About the Item

Anne Sargent Walker’s "Promises" is a 12 x 12 inch oil and acrylic painting on wood panel. Rich blues and greens in a dappled manner form the background, creating the look and light of leaves or even camouflage. A bright blue and white blue jay sits on a human hand done in pencil outline, revealing a streaky orange color underneath. What promises have we made to the bird, and should it believe them? The painting is unframed with painted edges and signed in the lower right corner and on the back. 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.
