TERRI BELL | FINE ART
TBELLPHOTOGRAPHIC STUDIO
i am an abstract painter, mixed media artist, designner, and fine art photographer based in denver, CO, USA. my creative process is spontaneous and intuitive. i envision abstract simplicity, but my eyes also crave detail, defined boundaries, organization, repetition, contrast, and texture. my work is contemporary in style, but also inspired by nostalgic elements, which makes my art pieces compatible with most home and business environments. my work has been shown in many solo, jurored, and invitational shows; and can be found in numerous private and commercial collections. As the proprietor of tbellphotographic studio, i have also curated art exhibits and projects, which featured works by artists from all over the world.
thank you for visiting my website.
many of my mixed media works are very textural. this doesn't always come through in photographs, but i'm happy to send along more detailed photos of any piece.
all of my paintings are finished on the sides with design elements in keeping with the piece.
my work is represented by Ugallery. please click below to access my artist page.
i also operate an etsy shop where i have an inventory of available small works, please click the linked image below:
