Patrick Walshe
Born in the West of Ireland, in 1952, Irish painter Patrick Walshe left Dublin to practice his art in New York and Los Angeles in the 1980's where he exhibited widely, returning to Ireland with his family in the 1990's..He now lives in the mountains of County Wicklow south of Dublin. He works to capture the essence of the tiny ecstatic moments of "being" that the wanderer in nature can experience and which the artist strives to forge into dramtic events, that are both viscerally exciting and readily accessible.. His paintings are meditations on Time, Place and Emotion.
