Gaoth Approaches 2023 by Gabrielle Ranger in Hamilton

Hello! I am an artist based out of Waterdown, ON. I have been creating for as long as I can remember and have played around with a large variety of mediums. At a young age I was inspired by nature and what it provides. I would sculpt from the clay in the earth that I would find while camping, and use found items for collage. As time passed I picked up an interest in painting, which led me to acquire a Bachelor of Fine Art Degree from the University of Ottawa in 2021. At the moment, I primarily focus on painting, drawing, digital art and mixed media as mediums. I enjoy playing around with the size of my pieces and the subjects/themes. In terms of style, I tend to vary from abstract to representational work. I am very inspired by the artists from the 19th and 20th century, such as Pissarro, Monet, Morrisot, Turner, Matisse, Renoir, Mondrian, and many more.
