Gabriella is a landscape artist living in Oakville. She has been a professional artist for over 20 years and is a graduate of the Art Fundamentals and illustration programs at Sheridan College.
Upon graduation she created illustrations and design work for a number of leading commercial studios in Toronto. At the same time she maintained her studio at home where she would produce her own art.
She now dedicates herself to painting in her studio full time. Her landscapes capture a sense of mood and essence which engages the viewer to her art. For her, the joy in painting, is to make each piece find its own voice. It is a challenge that inspires creativity and problem solving. Her work is represented at galleries in Ontario, P.E.I. and Calgary.
