Terry Guy

This artist finds inspiration from the Colorado Rocky Mountains, where he lives and explores.  Terry’s unique eye for shape and color translates into vibrant palettes in his stunning interpretations of landscapes, seascapes and other natural wonders.

 

This eclectic collection of uniquely colorful original paintings range from abstract to impressionist to semi-bizarre perspectives that prefer not to be categorized (also known as “What the heck was he thinking?”)  Terry Guy’s paintings range from reflecting the love and beauty of nature’s bounty and life’s richly colorful experiences to the tortured nightmare of finishing a close second in every hand of poker life deals—yet loving the game so much he’d rather raise on a bluff till he’s broke than fold and go home.  To quote the artist, “Life truly is great—I just wish I was better at it!”

When observingTerry Guy’s artwork, invest a little time to study the depth of the multiple layers and blends of colors as they reveal intricate details and images that will emerge from varying light and perspectives.  You may discover visions within the pictures as they seem to evolve with time. 

 

The artist offers:

“Sometimes even I am pleasantly surprised when a passing glance or a friend’s fresh perspective catches details from a different light that may add another aspect or even re-direct the message within the work.

 

I just paint ‘em, although it seems like the best ones paint themselves.  It’s an amazing feeling to watch your hands create something beautiful and accept that the most important thing is to keep conscious thought from interfering when the creative brain is cooking and in direct line as the hands, the paints, and the blank page become one multi-colored mystery.  I have to let my hand be free and share the joy that only my brain can see. 

 

My favorite feeling is when the painting says it is done and then I stand back and take my first real look at what just happened.  The greatest critical acclaim I will ever hear is when my inadvertent reaction, coming from somewhere deep inside and surprising me every time, is ‘Wow!’”.
