Hello, I'm Gabrielle C.

Gaby Cahn Chadowitz is from San Francisco​,​ California. She currently resides in Eugene​,​ Oregon. Gaby began her love of drawing and painting when she was five years old​,​ painting along side her grandfather and artist​,​ Thomas Sange. She has lived in California​,​ Sweden​,​ Hawaii​,​ Connecticut​,​ New Jersey and now Oregon. Gaby studied at the Academy of Art in San Francisco​,​ and took classes with painter Chester Arnold at College of Marin. While raising her young son​,​ she simultaneously received an Associate Degree in Landscape Design and management. After which Gaby pursued her passion in Art and completed her Bachelors of Arts at University of Oregon. Currently​,​ she is interested in combining her skills in realism with a spontaneous approach that results in a more expressive delivery on canvas or board. Often her work constitutes and amalgamation of materials​,​ from traditional graphite and charcoal​,​ to paper clay and scanned digital imagery. Conceptually Gaby is drawn to expressing the years she has spent being an advocate and lover of nature and other animals. Apart from a few paintings that resonate a more personal narrative​,​ her main focus at this time is anthropocentrism and the impact this belief has on our environment and the other species we share this planet with.
