Helen Watson Phelps (1864–1944) was an American painter.

A native of Attleboro, Massachusetts, Phelps is known to have received some training at the Académie Julian and with Raphaël Collin in Paris.[1] While there she showed work at the Paris Salon; she also exhibited at the National Academy of Design, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and the Society of American Artists during her career.[2] She received awards for her paintings at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York in 1901, and from the National Association of Women Painters and Sculptors in 1914,[1] and she was represented at the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago.[3] In 1915 she exhibited a group of paintings alongside pieces by Alice Schille, Adelaide Deming and Emma Lampert Cooper.[4] Phelps' work was described as having European tendencies, and was well-regarded by critics.[5]

Phelps died in New York City in 1944.[6]

A pair of portraits by Phelps are held by the Rhode Island School of Design.[7] Her portrait of Charlotte Buell Coman is in the collection of the National Academy.[1]
