Welcome

Wendy Murphy was born at Farnborough in Kent in 1956 . In her late 20's she had a complete career change from working as a typesetter in London and after studying for five years she obtained a Diploma with Distinction in Graphic Design from Canterbury College of Art and a BA(Hons)in Illustration from Brighton Polytechnic.

In 1990 she moved to Gwynedd, Wales, where she works as a professional painter and lectures in Fine Art and Life Drawing at Coleg Meirion-Dwfor.

She has won many prestigious awards including having been twice first prize British National winner in the John Laing Landscape paint competion and twice 1st prize winner in the Welsh Open, Tabernacle, Museum of Modern Art competition. In 2004 she won 1st prize in "The Spirit of Llyn" art competition.

She says of her work :-
"I gain inspiration from direct observation of the landscape, people that I know, things from my everyday life and re-create them - so that each painting becomes a piece of theatre - a subjective dramatisation of the familiar.
