“Discovering the Way” is not about arriving — it is about honoring the path that shaped me.

This exhibition brings together years of exploration across watercolor, soft pastel, acrylic, and mixed media — ranging from realism to abstraction. Some pieces began in careful observation. Others emerged through intuition and layered experimentation.

My creative journey has never followed a straight line. It has unfolded in seasons — each one shaping how I see, how I trust, and how I create.

As I gathered these works together, I saw more than finished pieces. I saw growth. I saw shifts in confidence. I saw the gradual refinement of voice.

This exhibition honors the path that continues to shape me — and the quiet persistence required to follow it.

I’m deeply grateful to the mentors and teachers who guided and encouraged me along the way. Their insight, challenge, and belief in my work have helped shape the artist I am still becoming.   -Kristin Murphy
