Gaby Carroll


Gaby’s fresh and bold artwork uses strong lines and bright colors. She tends to draw abstractly and paint figuratively. Lately, she has been enjoying working on windows with marker and acrylic. She works from photographs of friends, people she admires, and things and places she’s attracted to. No matter what the content, the strong feeling of joy and spontaneity that the work produces is undeniable.

Artist’s Statement

I’ve been doing art since I was a little but I didn’t know I was this good until I came to work here and I love my job!

I paint on windows. I like painting on the glass.

My Coral scene was my first window and I couldn’t think of anything to do with that window and I started making a design on it and it just looked like coral.

My Jerusalem painting was inspired by a trip to Israel in ’06.

My Grandma painting is inspired by Grandma. She’d been sick for a long time and during my try-out days at Arts of Life, she showed me the painting and brushes and everything, and I miss her.
