AT ART LEAGUE ACADEMY

ARTIST BIO:

With confident brushstrokes, Gayle tickles our imaginations with her fun and unique take. About Gayle’s paintings one of her admirers points out “Life would be that much more dull for the rest of us without Gayle’s art. There’s so much joy in watching the playful dance with style, color and emotion”

Gayle received her undergraduate degree in Business Administration and Management from the University of Maryland, but her favorite classes were drawing and graphic arts. As an adult, her professional worlds of medicine and insurance took her to Washington DC, Maryland and California, where her love of art brought her to Apparel Arts of San Francisco. At AASF, Gayle delved into clothing design and patterning. She found a second creative outlet – watercolor painting. She took watercolor classes in San Mateo, CA and Bloomington, IL, experienced plein air painting with Myna Wacknov in Brugge, Belgium and worked with many talented teachers in Bloomington where she was involved in two art salons at the Eaton Gallery. She co-founded Inside Out: Accessible Art, a Bloomington, IL co-op gallery.

Since relocating to the Lowcountry, Gayle has been very involved in the art community, joining All About Art in Sun City and SoBA, where she has served on the board as president. Her work is also shown at Art League Gallery and at the Beaufort Art Association.
