I had a great time working on this piece. The Old City in knoxville TN is only a couple of block long but has some beautiful architectural design to it. Patrick Sullivan's saloon is one that caught my eye.

Spotted Crow


This is an original oil painting of two crows watching the night fall. The spotted crow is a tribute to one of my favorite books when I was growing up “Put Me in the Zoo” by Robert Lopshire.
The colors used are rich and allude to the peacefulness that comes with the setting sun.

Recent Exhibit







I am just sitting here enjoying my coffee. I have been so busy lately with numerous art exhibits that I have completely neglected my blog. My most recent exhibit for the month of April, was Bliss Home which went so well, the show was extended for another month, through May. In the month of March I showed at Three Flights Up. Here is the write up:

Bliss home will host a reception for artists Terrie Boruff-Yeatts . Snacks and beverages will abound as bliss home will be celebrating its 5th year in business and owners, Lisa and Scott, will more than likely be welcoming baby Oliver into the world.

Terrie Boruff-Yeatts' tribal and urban archetypes are combined in her paintings to create a conceptual workspace merging dream and nature in a unified artistic sphere with many destinations. These destinations, or dimensional intersections, are starting points for stories that pose questions concerning the junction of dream life and the workday world. Layered totemic symbols drawn from life are used as guides through dreams and reality driving toward a threshold or epiphany fraught with drama, anticipation and apprehension.
She envisions this body of work as a symbolic narrative. The allegory is told through the systematic application of broad strokes creating a labyrinth of depth with colors that are active and still. The paintings, as a group and individually, portray a passage or progress from one stage of life to another.
