katmurphy's Profile

Bio

It turns out that I am one of the founding members at the Hygienic Artist's Co-op in New London, CT. I also am the director of programming and curator at Hygienic Art Galleries. www.hygienic.org. I am currently finishing up certificate program Print Design: Process + Production at Rhode Island School of Design

I have been working in encaustics for over 8 years. Big and small. Check out my website at www.katmurphy.com/archive to see more large works. I currently am at RISD for print design. Trying to hone my graphic skills in order to improve my website, marketing materials etc. Total DIY here!

Wouldn't you know in 2006 I received an artist in residency in the Rhodope Mountains of Bulgaria. When not working in my studio I have been known to draft Sol Lewitt's Wall Drawings.I also work as a freelance decorative artist, venetian plaster is one of my specialties. Love me for my explorations in silk screening, handmade goods, encaustic and mixed media painting.
