Patricia Walsh is a NSW North Coast based contemporary seascape painter. She draws inspiration from the extraordinary beauty of the Byron Bay coast and hinterland.

“Each painting resonates with stories of Byron, as I respond to the sounds, the windswept seas, the changing light, the energy and the freedom. It’s a breathing space that feels a world away from reality”, says Walsh.

Patricia represents land and seascapes with a particular focus on tone, texture and colour to create her atmospheric abstract impressionist paintings.

A third generation oil painter, she connects traditional techniques with contemporary practice. Exhibiting regularly, her works are held in numerous art collections. Walsh is a regular finalist in major national art awards.
