Carrie Welsh Original Artwork
Growing up in a family where both of my parents were artists, it is in my genes to be creative. My Father is Syd Mather, and we are related to Alfred Eustace and Walter Withers. I have spent all my life pursuing creative outlets. Expressing myself through artistic endeavors is an essential part of life for me, and creating art is my happy place. I work primarily using traditional mediums for my artworks and also incorporate modern digital techniques when painting some of my prints. I am a self taught abstract artist, and I hope to bring you a spark of joy and happiness when you view my artwork.
My paintings have a unique style with feelings and emotions through them, which I hope to convey to the viewer. I am a huge lover of colour and texture and always try to capture flow and movement in my work. I take inspiration from everywhere; however, nature is the most inspiring to me. I’ve lived in many places in Australia, and currently live in Perth, WA. This exposure to so many different environments has shaped all the imaginary places I paint. Ideas come to me intuitively with a sudden vision, then I feel I must create them! The painting naturally evolves as it needs to go through many layers. My imagination is always working overtime. Being able to create something that comes from my soul is such a blessing to me, and I hope you can take something positive away from viewing my work. My artworks are collected in Australia and internationally.
