Laurel Terlesky found her home in Squamish, British Columbia in 2006 after travels through the United States, tapping into the touch-and-go atmosphere of pop culture from New York to

San Francisco as well as footing through a handful of Canadian cities from Montreal to Vancouver. She completed her Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree with a major in Painting from the University of Victoria in 1999 and has been actively creating and contributing to the artistic community she surrounds herself in. The body of work Terlesky has amassed throughout the last decade is evidence of her dedication, not only to art, but also to life and living every day as an artist.

Terlesky creates canvases that are largely abstract in style built around an awareness of the human form and kinetic movement. Themes that have developed a language in her work are electricity & power, sustainable energy practices, spirituality, and the human body as it relates to the environment. Her paintings challenge our awareness of  pace by illustrating optical, illusionary space or by flattening space with solid colour placement. She has exhibited her work in Whistler, Squamish, Victoria, Vancouver, Montreal and California.

In 2008 Terlesky was awarded a stipend to spend a month at an international artist residency in Barcelona, Spain where she worked on future projects.
