About Fanzia Murphy:
Out of an admiration and respect for the ocean and its therapeutic environs fostered on the tropical shores of her native island of Trinidad, Fanzia Murphy has plumbed her memories to explore the mercurial power and serenity that one can find at the water's edge. Using vivid colors, graceful brushstrokes, and an attention to the subtle fluctuations of her subject, Fanzia reproduces the wide array of manifestations the ocean can offer-a brilliant yet ominously red sky looms in above the silhouettes of a sleepy fishing village, a deep azure blue rests quietly behind wisps of wind-swept clouds and above a turquoise sea, tufts of early morning fog gradually receding from the land as the ocean laps against rocky shores. These pieces allow the viewer to be transported to a place where tranquility reigns.
Significantly influenced by the French Impressionists, her sensitive eye, soothing palette, and instinctual awareness allow her to compose deftly selective and evocative depictions of places "where serenity and beauty are appreciated."
