Begin the heart hunt
Did you know?
These are not medical heart facts. They are pieces of Terri’s own hidden-heart story.
Terri began finding hearts in clouds, photographs, everyday objects, and even her brain MRI.
Hundreds of friends have sent heart photographs with the same message: “I saw this and thought of you.”
Some hearts only become visible after the painting’s layers are finished—or after the canvas is turned.
A heart to one viewer can be a face, figure, landscape, or entirely different story to another.
Pieces within a piece
“Most of my work is pieces within a piece. I’m just a painter. Within the picture, I hope someone finds something they like. One painting can hold thousands of one-of-one discoveries.” — Terri
You do not need to buy the original canvas to live with the part that moves you. A tiny detail can reveal an entirely new composition—then be reproduced in the size your wall, room, or imagination needs.



Collectors become creators. Terri creates the source painting. You inspect it, discover your own composition within it, and choose the scale that brings your view to life. A formal 1/1 designation is reserved for a composition guaranteed to remain exclusive.

Meet Terri
If you see something—even one small moment inside a painting—take a screenshot and send it to me. Circle it if you like. We can talk about what you found, find the crop that feels right, and make it in the size you need.
And if a heart finds you out in the world, please send me that too. I love seeing where they appear.
