D1 Birds and Benches Mentor Artist Presentation: Terrence Martin

Terrence Martin is a fulltime metal sculpture artist and native of California. The road he traveled to becoming a sculpture artist was not straightforward. He found an early career in Cardiac Surgery to be unfulfilling, so he changed course and pursued apassion for creating metal artwork. Terrence has now been practicing this craft for over 20yrs.

He has designed, developed and installed artwork in multiple states and all over Northern California. He has created both large and small scale sculptures in many unique and popular locations. Terrence Martin's work can be seen at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, The Rose Bowl Hall of Fame Museum, Golden One Arena, North Natomas Aquatic Center and many commercial and public works projects.

Terrence is always striving to create artwork that is one of a kind and appealing to both young and old and is inclusive of all ethnicities. Picking elements from the earth, nature, and history. The images are at once recognizable and tangible objects that appeal to our targeted audience. We try to capture their movement in metal, for a timeless voice that resonates with the spirit of today, tomorrow and, in the end, with all people.
