About the Item

"Trust Me", by Anne Sargent Walker, is an intimate, 12 x 12 inch oil and acrylic painting on wood panel in pale blues, grays and peach of a tiny Woodpecker sitting on a pencil held by a human hand. The hand is an outline drawing, and reveals streaky peach color from underneath. The blue and gray sky is lushly painted and the finely rendered Woodpecker looks at the hand as if responding to “Trust Me!” It 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.
