Terry Farrell

Returning to her roots that are based here in this incredible diverse culture just teaming with art. California born artist Terry Farrell, a Carlsbad native, is now residing in Louisiana not to far from New Orleans, where inspiration runs amuck. Her family has history here based back to the 1800’s. Currently she is working on new inspiration inspired by her new location a very recent move. She also keeps busy with private commissions, shows, numerous  than three decades of serious work in and for art. Showing talent at a very early age, she immersed herself in the artistic pursuit, starting at the age of eleven with oil painting. Since that precocious beginning, through a history of various career paths, art has remained a consuming passion.

One job that kept her particularly close to that passion was working as an assistant to the Executive for Whitt/Krauss Objects of Fine Art. Along the way she has been a primary art instructor in an Oceanside public school as well as having private students.


Teaching is still a true passion of her art, with students of all ages, starting as young as 4 years as well as her “Seniors Art Plan”. The “Seniors Art Plan” is a weekly program at retirement communities to spread her enthusiasm and joy of painting to our seniors.

As satisfying as being involved with art in those capacities can be, the ultimate satisfaction for any artist is in the creative act itself. Thus she has worked through the years to develop her talent and to exhibit her work, some of which will be located at her new working studio gallery in Louisiana. Her work has been honored in invitational art receptions and in one woman shows. Miss Farrell’s recent works include cerebral, surreal paintings commanding style as well as a heartfelt personal interest in the style of the renaissance, all done in acrylic on canvas.
