“My jewelry work began out of simple necessity to make a living and has only been a

significant part of my creative work for the last fifteen years. I was familiar with construction metal work having worked in my father's sheet-metal shop, hammering brass for him to decorate the mountings of elephant tusks. My designs focus on hand-crafted hammered mixed metals combined with semi-precious gems, antique trade beads & other unique beads or stones, and the addition of salvaged/recycled or discarded silver/copper/brass I strive for an emphasis on the design elements. I seek the interesting contrast of nature's forms against metal.”

Terry’s life-time dedication to the study of Visual Art with forty years of professional experience in all aspects of the Fine Arts and Visual Design are reflected in her work.
