The Jetty Gallery
Michael Murphy
Though specialising in ceramics at Leeds Metropolitan University 1977-1981 Michael has returned to his first love of painting.
He feels most comfortable exploring and experimenting with colour using bold brush strokes and a palette knife.
In his landscape pieces he enjoys portraying his impression of light and fleeting moments.
Michael travels extensively throughout Scotland selecting scenes which allow him to describe a moment in time rather than depicting a notion of a location.
