About Us

 Hi there, Just a few little bits of information About Me so you know whose work your collecting!

'Orla Walsh’s graphic paintings were first discovered on the railings of St. Stephens Green in Dublin, where she was selling her adventurous creations. Her use of bright and bold colours, stand-out text, and iconic products have allowed her to catch the attention of some very influential people over the years and grow her popularity. Since her chance encounter with a Heinz lawyer (which catapulted her career), her work has depicted some of the world’s favourite brands such as Heinz, Tayto and Converse, earning her the title of one of the leading artists in pop culture.'
