Sue Murphy: Figures & Faces

Ms. Murphy says, “I have always been interested in expressing myself in different media, but I worked earnestly in watercolor when my children were younger, not only because I loved the flowing quality of the pigment, but because it was so easily packed away. I do work in other media, but always come back to watercolor.” After studying 10 years with Mary Ellen Silkotch, a New Jersey Portrait painter, Ms Murphy went on to receive a dual Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Arts and in Education at Syracuse University in 1974. She then completed a Masters of Education Degree from SU in 1979, teaching art in the Phoenix, NY Central Schools until retiring in 2014.
