Let’s take a moment to acknowledge the work which has recently inspired art collectors to purchase these large and small paintings.

In no particular order, the following paintings have left the artist’s studio or will be leaving shortly. In order to complete this process in a timely manner, please withhold your applause until the last painting has become visible on your screen.

This painting had not been listed yet but the collectors had seen it in a social media post and fell in love with the work. So they made an inquiry to see if it could be purchased. Now it will be on its way to a new home in the State of Michigan.

More  about these contemporary impressionist style paintings and other original paintings by Terrill Welch that are still available for purchase can be viewed  in the artist’s online HERE.

In the near future, a West Coast Waves collection will be presented here as one of the possible arrangements for show during the 2016 season.

A Quick note from the artist: Thank you to collectors and fans for your ongoing support of my work. This success is as much about you as it is about the work. Your continued patronage, sharing, words of appreciation and encouragement are deeply appreciated! Terrill 🙂

This is the second work by the artist that has been selected by these collectors who in recent years have been adding more contemporary works to their collection.
