Terry Rogers is not an Artist like others ! He paints what we call representational realism and one of his favorite subject is rendering the upper-class leisure life stands as an iconic vision of today’s society. ( Basically Sex & Hollywood ) – His style is disturbing sexy and intriguing – Personally I like, but probably disturbing for others… See More of his work on his website

Rodgers has been featured in numerous publications in America and abroad including Die Welt, Art in America, Citizen K, German GQ, Kunstbeeld, Arte, Art and FLAUNT to name a few. And his book, Terry Rodgers — The Apotheosis of Pleasure, published by TORCH

Terry Rogers Himself

” Rodgers’ current work focuses on portraying contemporary body politics. His rendering of the upper-class leisure life stands as an iconic vision of today’s society. The resulting paintings are not snapshots or slices of life, not verite records of actual moments in actual party or family situations, or diaristic records of his life, but carefully constructed and composited fictions, designed to elicit the most meaning and sustain the maximum amount of ambiguity.”
