Theresa Dyer has been interested in art all her life, especially figurative drawing. Experimenting with sculpture, she found a medium that could combine her love of form and structure in the realistic representation of the human body. She works in terracotta and plasticine clay that finds its permanent life in bronze. Theresa Dyer is both a sculptor and licensed commercial architect creating large outdoor pieces that work in harmony to their environment. Ms. Dyer started her career as a designer and architect. She has a BFA in design from University of North Texas and a BFA in Architecture from the University of Tennessee, culminating at the University of Manchester, England. Licensed in several states, she maintains an architectural practice in Nashville, Tennessee and believes that architecture is sculpture. Today she works mainly on large outdoor commissions .
