James River at Lions Bridge

As a Plein Air painter, Brian Murphy has commited himself to capturing on canvas the scenic environment throughout the United States. The same majestic landscapes and seascapes that inspired early California Plein Air Painters such as: Edgar Payne, Hanson Puthuff and William Wendt provide audience to the artist's unrestrained style. Further afield, extensive travels to exotic locales including: China, Singapore, Japan, Korea, Hawaii and Alaska have resulted in impressive collections of oil paintings, while fostering the artist's creativity and global awareness.
