‘Walter Tandy Murch (1907-ì1967) was born in Toronto, Ontario. He attended the Ontario College of Art in the mid-1920s, studying under Arthur Lismer, a member of the Group of Seven, a group of Impressionist/Post Impressionist painters mostly active from 1910 to 1940. Murch moved to New York City in 1927 and studied at the Art Students League of New York In 1941 Betty Parsons held Murch's first one-man exhibition at the Wakefield Gallery, New York City.
Murch's style remains difficult to classify, although he has been variously described as a Magic Realist, Surrealist, Romantic Realist or just plain Realist.’
