Terri
Brooks, a New England Native, has new art in Harvest Gold Gallery!
Brooks studied at University of
Maine, majoring in sculpture, but quickly turned to watercolors as a more
suitable medium for her bright composure and passion for color. Ms. Brooks then
went on to have a 30-year career teaching Art in public schools of New
Hampshire. Her drive and excellence gave her the ability to start showing in
national exhibits in 2001, and since that time her art has been shown in over
thirty national juried art exhibits! She has received numerous awards for her
work, which is cited as “soft, glowing light and the use of color
granulation”
Brooks
talks about her work, “My work is
about the effects that light and atmosphere have on people and
places. I am a keen observer of the world around me. With camera or
sketchbook in hand, I seek to provide myself with the visual information
necessary to work from back in the studio. The summer haze, early morning mist,
crisp wintery light, etc. all has a unique effect on the subject and I strive
to capture that in my painting. The beautiful Mt. Washington Valley Region of
New Hampshire that I live in provides me with inspiration to paint just as it
has inspired many artists before me.”
This
inspiring Artist and Teacher takes home in Freedom, New Hampshire, and can be
seen in Galleries including, Surroundings Gallery in Center Sandwich, NH, her
Freedom studio, and our very own Harvest Gold Gallery!
