Terri L. Corkhill
Woodland Park, Colo.

Originally from Tucson, Arizona, Terri spent 11 years in Kentucky before relocating to Colorado. She has been a precious metal artist for 25 Years.

Bold and contemporary, her designs utilize a wide variety of precious and semiprecious stones as well as sterling silver and gold. "I love to play with the metal, gently shaping it, then just seeing where it falls. Most designs come from the stone. I hand pick my stones, then use their lines to suggest what comes next. Sometimes a design comes in a dream. Shortly before I wake up, I just 'see' a finished piece, my eyes open, and I run for a pencil to draw it out before the day erases the image." Terri explains.

Galleries in 19 states currently exhibit her work and some pieces have traveled as far as Hungary, Spain, and Hong Kong, as well as all parts of the United States. Several trade magazines and art shows have used her designs in their publications and Terri has won several awards and special recognition in various art fairs.
