Being directly in front of a large painting, and touching it, is an experience… seeing it on a small screen isn’t.
You can see either of these paintings in a Private Viewing.
(If you acquire a painting we can bring it to you and mount it on your wall . . . so you can feel something, time after time)

Film
A Terry Black Film
Here’s what a TV news anchor wrote after their Private Screening of work-in-progress scenes from the feature film.
“I feel like a different person. I can’t really seem to express what it is I feel except that I know there’s a change. It took me a few days to put it into words – the emotion is so overwhelming. It’s like I haven’t really seen everything around me until today, and I’m saddened by the loss of all the years I’ve wasted, and yet relieved I realized what I’ve been missing all these years just in the nick of time. You know this is monumental.”

Here is a film-score sample from one of our recording sessions.
PAINTINGS:
To come in close to a large painting and
then touch it, can be quite a feeling.
Curious?
Every painting of mine has sold.
People purchased them directly in
Private Viewings rather than through
galleries. It's personal.
Pricing patterns established a buyer's
market from the start, four decades ago.
They were created by a Toronto Stock
Exchange Governor and a Bay Street
investor, both art collectors.
“Violent” was the first word that came
to mind for a film studio department head
upon seeing indigo river ice paintings from
The Beggars Banquet Project collection.
Collections on four continents own my
paintings, as a result, shows are rare.
The book Fiery Vision Bright was produced along side a 1995 retrospective show at the University of B.C. in Vancouver.
FILM:
The feature film I’m making is in post-
production. The water, the ice and the mist
are players on this wide stage. The film and
paintings are two parts of The Beggars
Banquet Project. One art – two mediums.
One viewer said “There is a reverence in
Terry’s film that is extremely raw.”
Another viewer said, “After the film I felt
such a stillness and calm that I didn’t want
to speak or move”.
