Art Exhibition Sanity by Penny Murphy

I left school early to do art and spent two years full time studying commercial art at Technical college in Brisbane before working in an advertising agency. Later I went governessing at Talwood where I first started producing pen and watercolour paintings of local old buildings. After moving to Meandarra I joined up with a few other interested local ‘would be artists’ and we became the Glenmorgan Art Group and then became one of Mervyn Moriarty’s earliest groups receiving tuition from The Flying  Art School. I started attending McGregor Summer Schools when they had a pottery course and later studied silver jewellery making and cloisonne enamelling there for 20 years before changing to printmaking classes. I continue on now with watercolours and printmaking.
