David Terry

Description

David Terry's drawings and paintings range from evocative landscapes and portraits to intricate, multi-image montages. In addition to Terry's work in Fine Art, he illustrates regularly for a number of national magazines and newspapers. Since 1997, he has completed 26 published bookcovers, many advertising pieces, and numerous privately commissioned works. All of the work is done solely in pen & ink on paper. Tinting is done with watercolor and gold inks. No computers or animal-experimentations are involved in the process. While Terry's rural eastern Tennessee roots are obvious in the nature imagery and Southern iconography that permeate his work, his grounding in Literature is perhaps even more apparent---he holds an undergraduate degree in English from the University of the South and graduate degrees in Literature from both Middlebury (the Bread Loaf School of English), and Duke, with additional graduate studies at Oxford and the University of Virginia. David Terry first gained attention at the 1994 New Art exhibition at Duke University. Subsequently, he won an Emerging Artist Grant in 1996, and (since that time) has held 12 one-man shows in various commercial galleries, and otherwise beat a very hot track out of the teaching profession.
