| Your Personal Biography |
Teresa M. Turner has been a full time artist since 1992, creating mixed media sculptures and paintings. Teresa works in a variety of media, though most of her two dimensional pieces are acrylics or oils on canvas. Other two dimensional media she employs include watercolors, pen and ink, photography, graphite, and gouache. Teresa’s sculptures, employing a variety of ancient techniques, are often done in leather and porcelain.
Frequent travel in the US and Canada, as well as travels in Europe, provide Teresa with the ideas and inspiration for many of her pieces. She has a great love of the outdoors, as well as a lifelong interest in history, which greatly influence her work.
Teresa’s work appears in private collections throughout the US and Canada, as well as throughout Europe and the UK. Additionally, pieces have been added to locations in the public sector for permanent display in city offices and educational centers. Her work has been exhibited at such locations as the Royal Botanical Gardens in Hamilton, Ontario, the Smithsonian National Zoo in Washington, DC, among many others.
Teresa has been honored to receive several awards for her work, and was selected to be the featured artist at the Geauga Parks District’s Nature Art Festival in 2002. More recently, one of her floral pieces was chosen as the purchase award by the Dublin Arts Council, where it will remain on permanent display.
