“Bright” by Terry Meyer

Terry Meyer was born and raised in Milwaukee, WI. Currently living in Eau Claire: painter, sculptor, and writer.

“Bright” 48” x 30” Oils on canvas, applied with brushes, and palette knives by Terry Meyer •  From the artist: “As an artist, I connect with the energy and motion in my environment, which then serves as a conduit for the art I create. It is the assimilation of this spirit - energy and motion - that inspires my work. Within the mediums of painting in watercolor and oils, I  connect with the softness that is almost meditative and translate this energy through brushstrokes. Oils are more kinesthetic; I can feel the substance of the paint and its power, translating the environment around me. My sculptures take all of that into the third dimension. ”

Volume One finds its cover art in a number of ways, from local art shows to random emails to knowing someone who knows someone who knows a great artist. The art always originates from a current or former Chippewa Valley resident. If you'd like to submit cover art, send us a message.
