Color, pattern, circles, layers—and a little beautiful chaos.
Erin Bolger Welsh is an abstract artist working in collage, painting, mosaic, and fibers. Inspired by overlapping cycles and circles, her work explores the desire to find order in a chaotic and scattered world.
A longtime art educator who currently teaches at Bellefonte Area High School, Erin believes that dots, circles, scuffs, and scumbles all have a story to tell.
We’re excited to feature Erin and her vibrant, energetic work at the Bellefonte Art Museum. Stop in and take a closer look—you may discover your own story within the layers.
