His artistic career originally commenced with illustrating his architectural building designs, and in the 1980's he completed a series of landscapes, drawing from his experiences in Kakadu National Park and the Kimberley. </strong></span></div> <div><span size="3" style="font-size: medium;"><strong>He resurrected his art career in late 2021, initially illustrating his travel experience of villages in the SW of England, the Dordogne Region of France and Cinque Terre Region of NW Italy. </strong></span></div> <div><span size="3" style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Much of his art is about his personal experiences, utilising his love of photography, to discover and illustrate unusual features, natural or man-made, that enhance the landscape. He enjoys illustrating bridges, rockpools, beaches and villages, when they use natural materials to integrate with landscaped water features.</strong></span></div> <div><span size="3" style="font-size: medium;"><strong>His most recent work comprises a series of seven detailed surrealistic artworks of the &ldquo;Canning Wetlands&rdquo; at the Kent Street Weir, which emphasises the importance of the wetlands ecosystem in maintaining the health of the Canning River System. </strong></span></div> <div><span size="3" style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Terry, trading as Holton Art, is a member of the Armadale Society of Artists and has a website, <a href="https://holtcon.wixsite.com/holtonart">https://holtcon.wixsite.com/hol</a></strong></span></div>
