"The purpose of
an artwork is to actualize emotion
in the soul of the viewer." 

That's how
Randy J. Terry
explains his art.

"A poet does it with words.  A musician does it with music.  And a visual artist does it with a visual image."  And of course, "A comedian does it with those glasses that have the fake eyeballs hanging from those springs."

Yes, Randy was a disc jockey back in the 20th century and wrote comedy for a number of radio shows.  He was born in 1955 and has lived in Las Vegas and Minnesota, but has spent most of his life in Wisconsin.

Randy has studied Fine Art at the University of Wisconsin-Superior and The University of Minnesota-Duluth.

Mr. Terry became a full time artist in 1991 when he  was diagnosed with a degenerative disc disease.  He had studied many genres of art, but it was at this time that his work found its intense focus.

In 1991, Randy's charcoal rendering of Jan Stenerud was chosen by Mr. Stenerud to be permanently displayed in the Green Bay Packer Football Hall of Fame.

Randy was one of the artists featured in both the 1993 and the 1994 Milwaukee Sentinel Sports Art Shows in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

In 1995, Publisher and Executive Editor Robert Kennedy and Mr. Terry agreed to have the artist's work featured in the internationally published magazine MuscleMag  International.

The Northern League Baseball Champion - Duluth-Superior Dukes commissioned the artist to do a commemorative painting in 1998.   This painting has been published by the baseball team and is offered as a limited edition print.

The Baltimore Orioles Baseball team asked Randy to display his artwork at their art gallery, which is located at their baseball park at Camdem Yards in Baltimore, Maryland in 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003.

Mr. Terry's art has been featured at the Midwest Ironman/Ironmaiden Bodybuilding & Fitness Championships.  The artist's work has, also, become a regular feature at the "In Honor of the Earth" art show that is held every April in Minnesota.

Randy J. Terry maintains a studio on the West Bank of the Fox River in Green Bay, Wisconsin, U.S.A.  His artwork is notably featured in art collections around the world.
