Rowen Murphy is a self taught contemporary watercolorist. " My paintings are explorations in color, texture, pattern and subject, they evolve. For me it's about the painting of the painting- the creating of the art, the possibilities of water paint, imagination- the experimentation. It's what keeps me passionate. I'm absorbing life around me, making a comment about people, often based on friends or aquaintances, city culture, my environment and whats happening in the world at the moment the emotions with it all. My influences include the Chicago Imagists, German Expressionists, and pop art.
