Square Mural Project — GABRIELLE STRONG

Gabrielle Strong, Artist

Welcome to my site!

I am a visual artist with a focus in painting, ceramics, and more recently public art. Originally from the west coast, I draw inspiration from dramatic overcast skies and themes of water, which reoccur throughout my practice.

In 2018 I was awarded a major public art commission to commemorate Canada’s 150th anniversary, whereby I enlisted the community to help create a winding river mosaic that was successfully installed in a city park.

Currently I am working on a new collection of ceramic vessels, and as always, at the easel painting seascapes. Painting commissions are a big part of my practice, so please don’t hesitate to contact me if you would like to know more about this process.

I was delighted to be selected as one of the eight the inaugural artists to participate in the first Square Mini Mural Project, a collaboration between the Penticton Art Gallery and Cannery Brewing. Along with the other artists, I created a 4’ x 4' mural that was then auctioned off fall 2021 at the brewery, raising funds to expand the project into the future.
