Collection: Craig Morphew, Shannon
Shannon Craig Morphew was born in St. John's, Newfoundland in 1977.
There she was first influences by the raw beauty of the Canadian landscape. No doubt influenced by her father, fellow painter Philip Craig, an early love of art led to courses at Sheridan College and then the Ontario College of Art and Design where she
earned her BFA in 2001.
Landscapes, figures, and still lifes are all interpreted in the highly energetic and linear style for which Craig Morphew has become well known. Travelling extensively in Canada and abroad has enriched her experience and helped her create a personal and vibrant vision. Craig Morphew's use of ink, paint washes and thick strokes of colour are characteristic of her approach to painting.
Craig Morphew currently resides in Ottawa, and exhibits at solo shows in galleries across Canada. Her work is represented in private, corporate and public collections throughout Canada, the USA, the UK and Ireland.
