ARTIST Joanne Murphy

 

Website: My CHAPS Photo Art

In the fall of 1968, on her way home from Vietnam, Joanne stopped in San Antonio to visit a friend for a couple of weeks.  They went to the Riverwalk for dinner.  That's all it took!  San Antonio has been home since.

With a degree in Sociology but undecided about graduate school, Joanne enrolled in the San Antonio Community College for some photography courses.   Finally, she had found that means of creative expression she sought.  She has been doing business as CHAPS Photo Art since 1983.  In 1984 she applied to the River Art Group and was accepted.  Joanne has served as both a regular hostess and has been on the Executive Board for many years.

"There's nothing quite like the joy I experience when I'm chatting with visitors to our gallery who come from all parts of the world."
