Terrie Bennett

Art Brokerage: Terrie Bennett American Sculptor: Terrie Bennett is a second generation sculptor and has been sculpting professionally for over three decades. At a very young age she started working in the bronze foundry business with her father and uncle, sculptor's Tom and Bob Bennett- known throughout the world as Bennett Sculpture. As her father's apprentice she studied composition, form and the technique of creating three dimensional sketches in wire, which has also led to her being quite accomplished at welding one of a kind wire sculptures, which is where her father and uncle started their artistic journey. In her early twenties Terrie found herself called towards her own artistic voice as she was visited by whales and dolphins in her dream state. As her relationship with cetaceans grew in her inner realms she felt it a mission to bring more conscious awareness to them and their environment. So it was quite natural for her to start sculpting them. She was one of the first sculptors to focus primarily on marine mammals in the early 1980's, quickly establishing herself as one of the top marine artists in Hawaii and the western united states. She has always been an environmental activist so it was only natural for her to create work that she is passionate about which led to her involvement and contribution in many environmental organizations over the years.
