Columbia, SC
Born into a military family, Teresa Pietras spent much of her childhood traveling around the world. Her work is greatly influenced by Asian and European art. She attended the University of South Carolina where she studied Studio Art. She has worked in many mediums such as watercolor, metal, clay, glass and fibers. She began creating art dolls/figures about five years ago. This art form allows her to use the many skills she has learned through other mediums and apply them to one art form. Her work has been exhibited in museums, galleries and special exhibits across the United States, Taiwan, Germany and England. Her work has been included in publications such as “Art Doll“ quarterly, “Southern Living” magazine, “Columbia Metropolitan” magazine, "Lake Murray Columbia” magazine and "Taiwan International Art Quilt” book.
