Teresa Greve Wolf, is a Latina painter based in the Midwest. Teresa was born and raised in Santiago, Chile and immigrated to the United States some forty years ago with her spouse, who had received a scholarship to study at University of California, Berkeley. Prior to their move, Teresa had studied painting at the Escuela de Bellas Artes in Santiago and subsequently followed her husband’s career move to the Midwest. 

Teresa has earned awards at the Annual Social Justice and Art Exhibit in South Bend, Indiana, and the Art Show International I Los Angeles, received commissions from University of Oregon and has been selected to participate in art shows nationwide.    

Teresa is best known for her bold use of color and brush strokes on large format canvases, as well as her deeply transnational political and personal subject matter. Her expressive landscapes, portraiture and floral motifs reflect the influences of Cezanne, Kandinsky, Karl Marc, and Gauguin. 

At the same time, her uplifting florals both please the eye and demand respect. In short, you will see versatility throughout her collection. 

Teresa Wolf Artist Statement

My artwork insistently reflects my keen interest in bold colors, strong lines, and constantly challenging the creative process. In my paintings, I innovatively render and re-interpret diverse subject matter drawing upon a wide array of aesthetic approaches, mark-making techniques, and visual sources.  

A large portion of my artistic production involves crafting series of works that are focused on the same subject or variations of a theme. This approach allows me to revisit the selected place, person, object or idea at the epicenter of my inspiration in a mode that addresses my relationship to the subject in terms of temporality, emotion, and sensory experience. At the same time, each piece is infused with my personal interpretation and signature style, immersing the viewer in the rich palette of colors and daring brushstrokes that makes my work instantly recognizable. In this way, my artistic practice serves as a vibrant visual record, cognizant of the fact that even as one's subjects shift and change, each artwork embodies the essence of interpretation and individual expression.

My art business has been designated as a "Trusted Art Seller" with The Art Storefronts Organization, which means you can shop with confidence, and know that I stand behind the quality and value of my products.
