Terry Beard

Terry studied textile design and worked for many years as a freelance textile designer and illustrator. She now works from a new studio in the heart of the Cambridgeshire Fens.

‘I am mainly interested in exploring ways of conveying a sense of depth, form and movement using abstract marks and elements such as blocks of colour and lines. In the last few years I have been influenced by man-made structures and man's intervention within natural and built environments, such as dilapidated industrial and agricultural buildings, artificial lights and building sites. I use a range of materials and processes to make my work, including screen-printing, collage and acrylics, and over time have developed my own unique way of working.’
