Sillier Than Sally

Artist’s Statement

Hello, Hello! Welcome to Sillier Than Sally Land (the alter ego of Sally Walsh), this 
delightful world of mine is a whimsical, candy coloured wonderland. Clamouring with 
fun, joyful and whimsical watercolour creatures of all shapes, sizes and fluffiness levels. 
It’s been said my art is - “a glimpse into a world of rainbow filled dreams” & “confetti coloured imagery that wraps your heart in happiness.”
Water colours captured my heart a few years ago, and ever since, bright, happy, loose 
and engaging water colour art has flowed out of me. My art themes run from fluffy birds, 
to florals, to cute nursery art, to etherial ladies, to the animal kingdom.
With my art, I always hope to capture an enchanting & endearing moment, one that is smile educing, and brings out our inner, warm and fuzzy feelings. My water colour style is loose and vibrant, filled with contrasting pockets of realism and blobettes (yes, that is totally a made up word), that along with my “always draw outside the lines” mentality, 
I am able to breath a unique life & vitality into my creations.
My rainbow coloured art days started from way back in childhood, and my creative life journey has also included working as a Graphic Designer in an advertising agency and working in animation for Disney on major feature films like, Bambi 2 & Brother Bear 2. 
In 2011 I established “Sillier Than Sally” and life has been a whirlwind of colour, art & design 
ever since! I am a predominately a self taught artist, but have also gathered inspiration 
and know-how’s from all around the world through travel, studying the greats and online art classes to continually grow my artistic skills.
I live in sunny Sydney Australia with my cheeky 4 year old boy, new bub and huggable husband. I exhibit my art both locally and abroad, create commissioned art, teach adult & kids water colour workshops, create dynamic murals and license my art to some lovely companies
