He studied painting and stained glass in the Schools of Art in both Belfast and Dublin. Working in American Stained Glass during the 1960s, he subsequently returned to Dublin and worked with Irish practitioners in glass studios. He has collaborated with artists such as George Campbell, Gerry Dillon and Arthur Armstrong on stained glass commissions. By the late 1970s he started his own studio in Ranelagh, Dublin. Walsh is particularly renowned for his architectural commissions, some of which can be seen not only in Ireland, but also in the United States, Canada and Africa.
