![]() NORA MURPHY | Los Angeles, CA www.norawood.com In Los Angeles for almost three decades, Nora Murphy has worked as a photographer, writer, art director, and display designer. Nora now runs her own dog walking business, Angels Walk, and has been enjoying a successful endeavor into dog portraiture. Just before Nora’s first dog passed on, she painted her portrait on canvas. Positive reactions got her hooked and she has now painted dozens of abstract and spirited portraits. Ms. Murphy has been represented by the Los Angeles County Museum's Sales & Rental Gallery, by VIVA and VAG (both LA guilds) and has been accepted in many juried competitions across the U.S. Buyers of Nora’s work include Bill Maher, John Larroquette, Mitch Hurwitz and Jordan Scherr. Nora is active with the PAWS/LA charity, the Amanda Foundation and the cause to end puppy mills. |
