Walter Tandy Murch (1907-1967) was a Canadian-American artist who is best-known for his still-life paintings of eclectic objects that are depicted as if through frosted glass. Murch's artwork is unique and defies formal labels but has been associated with Surrealism, Realism, Magic Realism, and Romantic Realism. Heavy and oversized items may require additional shipping.
