BIO

Beatrice Terrien lives and paints in New York City. She has been drawing on and off for 35 years and studied in New York, Civita Castellana and Rome in Italy, and Vinalhaven in Maine. She is recently retired from a career in academic administration, and now teaches math to 5-year-olds and paints.

Philosophy

Light and shadow teach her to play towards a painting. In portraiture and figurative art, she focuses on a moment's emotion to approach its clarity. The trick is to communicate this moment.

Exhibitions
