The photo/graphic ART of

Terry Hastings

​

​

Terry Hastings is an artist of many talents.  Growing up in Minnesota, he first started learning piano at the age of 5. And then drums and choir and speech. Eventually, he received a degree in Theatre from California University at Northridge. After many years in the theatre and taking weeks or even months to create a show, Terry desired something a bit timelier.  He picked up the camera and started down this path of finding beauty in the world.  In 2009, he moved to Palm Springs California, and everything changed. He was now in a climate where he could be outside nearly every day of the year. Without the need for studio lighting, he began to work almost exclusively with natural light. 

     The current iteration of the website splits Terry's newest work Photo/Graphics into three categories: Place, Person and Pool. You will find a blend of photography and digital art techniques being used to create these images.  Many times, Terry starts with a photograph of a model or cactus, and then in photoshop, "cuts" them out and scratches in details.  He then digitally creates the background.  Sometimes, Terry eschews the camera altogether and jumps right into the digital work.

     For Terry's art shows at the Toolshed, a local Gay Leather bar, he specifically created the "sketches".  Similar to the photo/graphic or cut-out works, Terry starts with a photograph and does a quick digital sketch of the piece on a black background. Be warned, these are very spicy  images. Super simple and very addictive.  Check them out at "Sketches"

    If you would like to see a much broader spectrum of work by Terry, we've added the etc section.  This section gives you an extensive overview of Terry's Fine Art Photography.

​

This month we are highlighting Terry's work with Water.  Much of Terry's first attention getting photos were from this series.  Terrys takes large amounts of colorful fabric and puts them in the pool with the model.  That's it.  No photoshop, except to brighten.
