PAT MURPHY

"I have been exploring the intimate setting of the rooms that surround me. I am interested in the little dramas (both real or imagined) that the scenes evoke. I have been reading a lot of contemporary poetry, which I have found very inspiring for talking about our lives. I try to create paintings that we feel but not necessarily see."

And of course, Pat plays guitar and sings at many an AIR Open House. Thanks, Pat!

PAT MURPHY

Art teacher at Richford Jr./Sr. High School, Pas has been involved with the gallery since the beginning. He studied in both America and England and now works primarily in oils. The new work uses ideas, songs, stories and memories of people and place to create paintings that we might feel but not necessarily see. As he sees it, "It's a new approach for me. One that I've been trying to get at for years. I want to use personal and collective memories of small town America as a springboard for talking about our lives."
