About Liz
Professionally trained Abstract Artist and mother of two sons, Liz Murphy was born and raised in Surrey, England. Always creating and painting, she studied Graphic Design at Kingston University and has enjoyed a diverse creative career. Before starting her own company, her roles included creative directorships in London-based design agencies, designer of a range of kids' products, and illustrator of New York Times bestselling children’s books.

Liz moved to the United States in 2005 with her family and settled in Montclair, NJ, just outside of New York City. Once her sons were grown,
she decided to follow a childhood passion for creating beautiful, functional spaces, launching her own Interior Design and Staging firm, Liz Murphy Designs.

Today, Liz divides her time between her design business and her art studio. Her artwork can be found complimenting homes and public spaces across the tristate area and beyond. She believes that “home is not just a physical location, but a feeling that warrants an emotional connection,” which can be cultivated with intentional art placement and good design.
