Dorothy Churchill Wyman was professionally known as D. C. Wyman
(or later D. Wyman Martin). She studied at the Boston Museum of
Fine Arts School, Massachusetts and then privately with George
Elmer Browne. She accompanied Browne on her first trip to Europe
and later studied with him in Provincetown during the summer.
Wyman's first solo exhibition was at Grace Horne's Galleries,
the trend setting Boston gallery of its time, where she sold six
of the landscapes she had done in Spain and France during her
outdoor instruction with Browne. Her work first prompted national
recognition at the twenty-second annual exhibition of the Allied
Artists of America held in New York in 1935. Wyman continued to
exhibit extensively throughout her career at the Boston Society
of Independent Artists, the Copley Society and the Provincetown
Art Association, among others. Some of her most interesting exhibitions,
however, were held in her own studio located at 112 Newbury Street
in Boston.
