Terri Henningson loved painting as a child, and as early as the age of five was winning awards in art. By eight, she even had a “one woman” art show at the local hospital. However, because her main talents resided in the world of music, she focused on her violin studies as her practice time increased, making it necessary to choose between the two art forms. She has a degree in music performance, and teaches violin and freelances as a violinist in the Atlanta area.
