These exquisite pieces of art are the creation of Terri Bruner Goodman, a very talented artist with a flair for knowing just what the auto enthusiast enjoys. Terri is no stranger to the automotive industry, growing up and helping in her dad's bodyshop in Kentucky and now working along side her husband, Jim, doing custom lettering and airbrush art work on their customer's cars at Classic Auto Restoration. Some of Terri's work is also being proudly displayed at Automania in New Braunfels, Texas.
******************************
"I've been an artist for over 28 years now. I began drawing ads and portraits and lettering right out of high school. I had no formal education in art, but I feel you can do anything on your own if you want to bad enough. I worked in and out of different body shops when called to airbrush bike tanks, cars, etc. in my surrounding area. I was determined to master an airbrush only because after applying for a job at a local shop to learn airbrushing under their instruction, the owner of the shop stated, "Sorry, you won't do, you're a woman." Yea, right! If only he could see this site! Dad bought my first airbrush and compressor and I figured it out for myself. No man had to show me anything.
I have an 11 year old daughter, Gena, who now insists on learning to brush, too. She'll have one someday, but nobody touches mine!
My specialties are people. I can almost make them talk. Marilyn Monroe, Elvis, Dean, old vette-car scenes. I really like the older things but love to do anything or anyone upon request.
My daughter, Gena
My husband, Jim and son, "Shady"
