Wax can be scraped, inscribed, collaged, molded, sculpted, textured and used with many other mediums. It continues to peak her imagination and allows her to recapture a naive sense of wonder about life. Teri’s work invites the viewer to share a moment of time to explore thoughts of nature, secrets, times and places that we dream of or wish for. The viewer can reconnect to the possibilities of love and nature and all that is life in its true essence.
