Terry Stevens has been painting animals all her life. Her father, George Stevens, who started his career as a Disney animator, coached and guided her talent. The majority of her paintings have personal meaning and are not available to the general public. In 1987, after being diagnosed with cancer, she took the opportunity to slow down, reassess life, and spend quality time with her young son. During this period, she spent time painting. Many of the works created during this period are on display on this web site. Terry says
she feels positive that the spiritual connection she had with her son,
who was less than a year old at the time of her cancer diagnosis, and
the time spent therapeutically with her animals, made it possible for
her to beat the odds and be here today to share her art work, love for
animals, and her life success story. Airedale Terriers have certainly always been her favorite subjects, and the majority of her work involves the dogs she lives with. But, as you visit the various "Galleries" shown on this site as they open to the public, you will see she also enjoys studying and painting other animals. Enjoy the animal art on these pages!
