About Terry

Side view of Terry Smith in front of an abstract painting she created, featuring white, pink and turquoise.

For four months in 2017, Colleen Rupke enjoyed my art at her workplace, the Sammamish Public Works Department. On the day we took down the show, Colleen shared what it was like working in the environment of these paintings. I was speechless and so moved. This is why I do art.

Terry Smith loves color and trying new materials and approaches. From landscape to flowers, her work will typically be expressive and created intuitively with many layers. She moved to Arizona from the Seattle area in 2021 and is interested in the magical Sonoran desert.
