Terry spent her childhood in the countryside of Litchfield County, Connecticut, developing her love for art and nature.  Her main past time was drawing, thus creating a strong foundation for her work today.  Following her education and marriage Terry moved to Vermont to raise her family.  During those busy years she created greeting cards and did freelance artwork for private businesses, friends, and organizations such as United Way.  After managing and training a race horse farm and drafting for a civil engineering firm she with veterinarian husband, Al, moved to Dorset.  There she was able to set up a studio and devote herself to her art with the encouragement and support from family and friends.  It has proven to be a successful and rewarding decision.

Terry's first show was with her Father, a known writer/photographer, in Rangeley, Maine in 1990.  Since has been a succession of shows and a growing following of her work.  She has studied at local colleges and also privately with known realist Gunter Korus.  She has done many private commissions, received awards and international interest.  Her oils have been reproduced for businesses, to be used for Christmas cards and has been featured on magazine covers and in articles.  She is presently represented in several galleries but still markets privately from her studio via magazines and the web.  She especially enjoys interaction with her clients as the love of art remains a common interest to share.

Her distinctive style is portrayed in many ways.  With almost an eclectic combination of interests from horses and children to landscapes and still lifes she is able to communicate her feelings through color and form in an emotionally expressive way.  Her work is realistic yet always leaving room for the viewers' imagination to be utilized.  She follows a layering technique similar to the masters, finding the dutch painters such as Vermeer a great inspiration.
