Mary Lou Murphy

Many years ago I received a set of oil paints as a gift from my husband. That’s when my involvement in painting began. I dabbled with them for a couple of years but not seriously as my time was devoted to raising five children. However, my desire to paint stayed with me and fifteen years ago I dusted off my brushes. This time I turned to watercolors. It’s a challenging medium. The watercolors blend with sometimes unpredictable results and I love its transparency.

Most of what I know about painting, I learned from four years of excellent instruction with Christine Bean of Dartmouth, MA.
