Gail's love of nature is reflected in the breadth of her work across years of artistic expression. As a young girl growing up in Boston, her initial inspiration came from an aunt who taught her how to create pinecone wreaths with a coat hanger.
After raising three daughters in Southern California, Gail decided to develop her personal interest in flora and fauna by earning a certificate in floral design. She spent many years creating with nature as a professional floral designer before returning to school to take a variety of art courses.
Gail recently moved back home to New England, settling in Sandwich, Massachusetts, where she maintains a full time studio surrounded by woods and seashore. Her work creates the impression of looking into thickets, streams and ponds through the limpid gaze of a sensitive observer. She enjoys working with copper because of the unusual elements that are absorbed and interpreted into each piece, resulting in endless artistic possibilities.
The complex interrelationship between urban and rural landscapes motivates Gail to recast her "findings" into a visual field of luminosity between the hard-edged and the organic.
Gail's works are exhibited and sold in galleries in New England and Southern California.
