ABOUT THE ARTIST: Originally from Southern California, Terri has always had a talent for the arts, especially creating with her hands: drawing, painting, sewing, Batik, macramé, ceramics and weaving. In 1978, Terri went traveling for 6 months with her 6 year old daughter, Lisa to “see the world”. They spent most of their time in France where they explored old castles, churches and the countryside, visiting art museums, soaking up the rich culture and eating lots of cheese and baguettes. It was here that Terri became inspired by the Impressionists. Back in California, she studied art, earned a two year degree and worked another seven years as a graphic artist until being lured to the “Garden Island” of Kauai by its incredible beauty and pristine natural environment. Here, Terri’s hands express themselves using the materials and impressions of the island. From the fiber of the local plants comes the raw material for this art. From the beauty of the island comes the creative drive. “Every day I see visions and colors that evoke feelings I want to express. And the process of creating art using materials gathered from nature, that feeling of being in tune with the natural word, is very satisfying". CONTACT INFORMATION: Terri Scarborough P.O.
