Teresa Ferullo In February 2007, the Library is featuring Pelham artist Teresa Ferullo's work in oil, pastel and pencil. Teresa Ferullo’s family has collected art since 1829. Growing up in Chelmsford, MA, a drawing of a cricket from her great-great grandfather graced the walls of her parents’ home with many other works of art in pen and ink and watercolor. Creating art also runs in the family: her father is an artist and photographer, her brother has a degree in Art from SMU, and Terri has loved photography as long as she can remember. When earning her B.S. from University of Lowell, she was able to indulge her love of photography as president of the photography club and on the yearbook photography staff. Terri has also taken private art lessons from Jane Causey Mitcheson of Winchester, MA and at Hammar & Sons Art Studio in Pelham.
She loves
drawing children. She has
written and illustrated a book titled, Baby Mine and has also
created a phonemic early reader called, Pat Is It.
Joining
the Pelham Gardeners Group inspired her to photograph nature and, in turn,
create beautiful works of art. The
purple irises were her grandmother’s, then her
mother’s, and now hers. She is painting a triptych to include other family
irises – yellow, golden and maroon bearded. Terri has
also painted portraits of several homes, including their gardens. If you would like your children, home or garden transformed into a work of art, contact Terri at:
