This exhibition includes three artists: Amy Terry, Angela Teeter and Aaron Jones. We all work in the art form of assemblage, but with very distinct styles. I identify as an expressive, tinkering, process artist. My approach to creating is non-traditional. I collect found objects, such as bones, fragments of machinery, and broken/ orphaned pieces of all things strange and unusual. I curate and combine the objects to create something interesting and novel. I take inspiration from nature, spirituality and folklore from all cultures, history, scientific experiments, tattooing, Gothic literature and aesthetics, as well as cinema, specifically classic horror and Sci-Fi films. Creative influences: Albert Pinkham Ryder, Henry Fuseli, H.R. Giger,…

I’ve been on a creative path for over 45 years. I’m an enthusiastic, creative person who wears a lot of hats—including fine artist, illustrator, designer, gallery manager, educator, and an executive of art organizations. I am a realistic artist who has transitioned into multiple styles of painting, exploring abstract ideas and themes. I’m an expressive and intuitive painter in oils, acrylics, watercolors, pencils, and ink. I love light, movement and color, and I push myself to find the right subject and style for my work while staying open to everything around me. I call myself a colorist. Everything is strong and bright, but there is a surrealistic twist to much…

I am inspired by tranquil landscapes and provincial settings. My artwork reflects some realism but I hope to capture the whimsy of days gone by while living in the moment. I enjoy experimenting with different mediums and lately I have been using oil pastels. I have also been making clay pendants/charms to paint designs on; either as an accessory or just something pretty to look at. I’m a new mom, and I have been creating in my spare time (my family is also an inspiration but I try to maintain my identity and individuality too). I hope to continue to be a part of a community which encourages creativity!
