Patricia Murphy lives in Texas. In 2003 the Fort Worth Star-Telegram chose "Pool #1" as the featured painting in its week of promotion for Fall Gallery Night. Recently her work has shown in competitions juried by Janet Bishop, Curator of Painting and Sculpture at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and Michael Duncan, independent curator and Contributing Editor in Los Angeles for Art in America.

Plane II, Oil on Canvas, 24x24

"I paint the world around me. I carry a camera as a sketchbook because the images that catch my eye are often fleeting: reflections, shadows, objects moving in and out of relationship with one another. Pattern and shape are more important than the fact that the paintings are realistic."

Pool IV, Oil on Canvas, 36x24
