Terry is a local Columbus, Ohio native who graduated from Eastmoor High School. He has been involved in creating artwork since his childhood. He attended Saturday classes at Columbus College of Art and Design as a child.
Terry grew up drawing comic book characters and things that would capture his eye. His love for art grew when he was awarded Saturday art classes at Columbus College of Art and Design. Although attending just a few of the classes, Terry is a self-taught artist.
Terry is a creative artist who works predominately in the mediums of charcoal and pastels. He has the artistic ability to capture the essence of an individual through his creative portraits. His use of charcoal is so intensely detailed, that many people mistake his realistic drawings for photographs.
