Quiet Arrangement, Abstract Painting

2022

Artist Comments
A multi-media abstract with subtle blocks of organic and geometric elements by artist Terri Bell. "Each element is unique and contributes to the whole," says Terri. "It's a subtle composition that emphasizes texture. Some painted elements are 'hidden' behind cloth and paper to convey a quiet meditative feeling. I love complexity within simplicity, and for me, this piece achieves that."

About the Artist
Artist Terri Bell constructs highly detailed geometric fields that dance to life with engaging colors and soft edges. As a young child, Terri always wanted to paint, draw, or play imaginative games. She entered college as an art major and received important mentorship from several teachers. Unfortunately, it was at this point that Terri’s art career was put on hold. "I had to make a couple of detours along the way, and ended up changing my major to political science," she says, "which led me to work in a high stress, high profile state government position." Terri’s creative pursuits were more limited but ever-present. "Art was the balance in my life and I never gave up my dream." Through hard work and determination, she has returned to her calling as a full-time career artist. When she’s not painting, Terri enjoys cooking, container gardening, and spending time with her husband and two Yorkies.
