    • Bio

    Terri Saul was born in Glendale, CA in 1971. She now resides in Berkeley, CA with her daughter, Lydia. She is the granddaughter of Chief Terry Saul, a Choctaw painter, illustrator, and peyotist.

    Her main influences begin with her early exposure to photography. Her father Bill Saul worked as a news photographer for the Associated Press and also studied art photography with Edmund Teske. Complementing Bill, her mother Sue gave her studio space, a portable radio, and the abstract expressionists.

    Many other things contributed to her artistic development. Years spent traveling with her brother’s Greco Roman wrestling team distracted her from the ongoing threat of nuclear war. Free xerox art, street art, comic books, and zines were scattered throughout Los Angles on the counters of espresso bars. Shows of expressive paintings by such greats as Philip Guston, James Ensor, Emil Nolde, Max Beckmann, Otto Dix, Stanley Spencer, Frida Kahlo, Kathe Kollwitz, Louise Bourgeois, Georg Baselitz, and various Pacific Northwest, Inuit, Native American, Mexican and Latin American artists were all sources of inspiration.
