About
Award-winning self-taught Artist. Best known for her Batik paintings featured on the covers of National Magazines such as Yankee and Reader's Digest (National and International). Featured on ABC's Home Show and HGTV. Terri has traveled 3 continents for inspiration and exhibitions.
She lived in Paris, attended the international Batik Gathering in Ghent, Belgium, the World Batik Conference in Boston, MA, and studied mosaic in Ravenna, Italy. Her recent invitations to exhibit include the Museum of Fine Arts, Tokyo, Japan; the Kansas City Art Institute; the University of Maryland; the Mill Atelier Gallery, Santa Fe, NM; and the Queens Gallery, New Zealand. Terri's work is collected worldwide; her strong sense of design, along with her romantic nature and painterly qualities, has brought international recognition for her Batiks.
Each of Terri's Batik paintings reveals a command of materials and techniques; she is considered one of America's foremost Batik Artists. She has mastered the traditional method of over-dyeing and combines that with more modern techniques. Her work features a wide range of colors and subtle hues, too, with complex bright color combinations, difficult to achieve in Batik. Her new mixed media work is fun and unusual. Her current work is semi-abstract paintings of figures and Landscapes.
