Murphy Armitage exhibit in Altadena opens Oct. 9

October's artist for the Gallery in the Coffee Gallery, 2029 N. Lake
Ave. Altadena CA , is Murphy Armitage, photographer:

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.

Opening Reception on Sun., Oct. 9, 4-6 PM, at the Coffee Gallery.
