Butterflies and Zebras and Moonbeams, Abstract Painting

2025

Artist Comments
Inspired by the dreamy lyrics “butterflies and zebras and moonbeams,” this abstract painting offers a sense of gentle wonder. Symmetrical in design, black-and-white organic shapes frame a central focus of colorful butterflies, a luminous moon, and radiant moonbeams rendered in metallic and iridescent paint. The result is both whimsical and serene.

About the Artist
Artist Terri Bell creates geometric abstracts with harmonious colors and intricate patterns. From childhood, she aspired to a creative path and pursued art in college, receiving invaluable mentorship. Her journey took unexpected turns, making a few detours and eventually changing her major to political science. This led her to work in a high-profile state government position for many years. However, Terri's creative spirit remained unwavering. "Art was the balance in my life, and I never gave up my dream," shares Terri. Through hard work and determination, she returned to her calling as a full-time career artist. Terri currently operates from her home studio in Denver, Colorado, which, while slightly cluttered, exudes a cozy charm. When she's not painting, Terri finds pleasure in cooking, container gardening, and spending time with her husband and two Yorkies.
