KDHamptons Featured Artist: Terry Elkins Opens New Show "Close To Home" March 23rd.
Terry Elkins is an established Bridgehampton, New York artist who has been working professionally since the late 1970’s. His highly collectible oil paintings, pastels, drawings and watercolors cover a range of subjects from landscapes and seascapes, to maritime images and historic architectural landmarks. KDHamptons is a big fan of Terry’s work and we share a preview of his upcoming show, below..
Terry shares, “As the show is titled ‘Close To Home’ most of the pieces are from around my own neighborhood here – Bridgehampton/ Sagaponack/Wainscott. Some pieces were started in the last year and most were started and completed in 2019. There are a lot of other landscape painters out here. I don’t think you’ll see anything like this though.”
Elkins received his Bachelors of Fine Arts degree from Sam Houston State University in 1975 and his Masters of Fine Arts from the University of Houston in 1978. His works have been exhibited throughout the Unites States and abroad. He has received two Pollock-Krasner Foundations Awards and has been an artist in residence for the Frederic Remington Art Museum in Ogdensburg, NY and the Nature Conservancy at the Andy Warhol Preserve in Montauk, NY. He has taught classes in Plein Air painting for the Parrish Art Museum of Southampton, NY.
