Gabrielle, born in Newcastle, Australia, now resides in the serene landscapes of the Manning Valley and Tanilba Bay alongside her family. Raised on a quaint farm in Bobs Farm, Port Stephens, her early years were steeped in the beauty of nature, igniting her passion for art. Encouraged by her family, Gabrielle's artistic journey began at the early age of 7 a family member crafted her first easel.

Her enthusiasm only grew with time, leading her to spend school holidays at The University of Sydney studying life drawing at the age of 14. Furthering her education, Gabrielle pursued studies at The National Art School in Sydney, where she honed her skills in life drawing, painting, sculpture, and photography, ultimately earning a Diploma of Arts in Fine Arts.

Gabrielle's artistic ventures extended beyond Australia as she spent 5 and a half years in England, traversing Europe and immersing herself in its rich art scene. As a freelance visual merchandiser, she contributed her creative touch to various projects, including design, construction, and presentation for events, exhibitions, and productions.

Continuing her academic pursuits, Gabrielle enrolled in a Bachelor of Design (Communication of Design) at Swinburne University in Melbourne, Victoria. Subsequently, she delved into advertising, events, and freelance design, expanding her repertoire and experiences.

With a penchant for contemporary art and design, her recent works incorporate intricate patterns, layered textures, bold imagery, and abstract elements. Utilizing various mediums such as pen & ink, watercolor, acrylic, pencil, charcoal, and collaged paper, Gabrielle crafts captivating pieces on watercolor paper and other surfaces.

Driven by her love for art, Gabrielle has embarked on a mission to empower individuals of all abilities through creative expression. She envisions a space where people can come together to embrace the fun of art—whether it's through painting, singing, dancing, or simply being themselves.
