Terri Burris

Terri Burris of Third & Wall Art Group

Terri Burris was born in Los Angeles, California. After studying art in college, she went on to work as a graphic designer for fifteen years. Bolstered in an extensive career in textile, graphic and ceramic design, and feeling the need for more spontaneous control of her artwork, she returned to her first and greatest love, paining. 

Intertwining her love of nature, abstraction and design in each of her atmospheric pieces, Burris paints from focused perspectives of the natural world. Her intuitive use of color creates subtle layers of imagery that are unique to each subject. The textured, moody and poetic pieces incorporate crystallized collage fragments to provoke each individual's own thoughts, feelings, memories and imagination. Of particular inspiration to Burris is a dramatic display in weather and its ability to make an impact on the human spirit, much like what she strives to do through her art.
