Murphy Armitage: Artist Bio

Murphy is going to school for Graphic Design. He defines himself as a Screen Printer, Photographer and Graphic Artist. While awaiting admission results from Art Center College of Design and Cal Poly Pomona he has taken more interest in Photography. He prefers to shoot large format 4x5, but he also shoots a lot of 120mm, 35mm and digital formats. He has spent most of his time in photography shooting black and white, but has recently started shooting color film as he has learned to develop and enlarge color film. Murphy develops all his own film and enlarges them as well with the use of black and white or color photographic papers. Murphy would place his body of work mostly within the style of Photojournalism, but he is still testing the waters in all types of photography.
