Terry Wylie

Welcome to the world of watercolor through the eyes of Terry Wylie, an artist who specializes in capturing light and atmosphere in his paintings.

Terry’s Navy career has served as a profound source of inspiration, instilling in him a deep love for the sea and sail. From serene sunrises to tumultuous storms, the ocean’s beauty and drama have remained his constant companions and most powerful muses.

As both a plein air and studio painter, Terry is drawn to local scenes, where he strives to distill the essence of each moment onto canvas. His artistic range is broad, encompassing portraits, figure painting, landscapes, cityscapes, wildlife, and Western themes.

In addition to his personal practice, Terry plays an active role in the artistic community, serving as Vice President of the Virginia Watercolor Society and President of the Chesapeake Bay Watercolorists. Through these leadership positions, he is dedicated to cultivating a vibrant, supportive environment where artists can thrive.

Terry takes great pride in celebrating the rich cultural heritage and natural beauty of the region through his art—inviting others to join him on a journey of creativity and exploration.
