Acrylic Dreams

Acrylic Dreams original art awakens your space, creating interest, encouraging contemplation & improving overall quality of life. “When we view art we make decisions on how to interpret what we are seeing. We use logic and reason to attribute meaning to what we see or what we create. Because art has such an emotional connection to us, these choices are passionate to us. We learn to defend them and explain them to others. Art not only helps strengthen our critical thinking skills, but improves the way we communicate our thoughts and emotions to others.” Lesli Walsh ~ My abstract mixed media art is bold, brightly colored with lots of detail and brightens up any room. I am an expressive, intuitive artist and almost never know what the end product will be when I start a piece. I mix vintage book pages, magazine pages, newspaper, acrylic paint, ballpoint pen, pencil, stickers, original drawings, and bits of enamel, plastic do-dads or toys - anything that works with the depth and scale of the piece. I have art on 3 continents, art across the United States and have sold over 150 pieces. I do art commissions. They marry my innate need to create with abandon and the part of my being that wants to bring something beautiful into the world on behalf of someone else. It's a special gift. I do commissions for both businesses and individuals and incorporate meaningful, client-specific details, imagery and artifacts.
