Gabrielle Weaver

Gabrielle Weaver is an illustrator from Kansas City, Missouri who uses both traditional and digital mediums when creating art. With roots in Graphic Design, she now focuses mainly on following her creative spark wherever it leads her. Every year expanding and finding new aspects to add to her art identity, never staying with one idea or medium. Currently, her focus is on painting and printmaking, creating art that represents her childish persona.

She prides herself in the way she uses color and brush stroke in her work, always having a painterly effect in her creations. As well as always creating a certain mood in her work; always wanting to leave the viewer smiling and laughing. A mix of childlike wonder with an appreciation for traditional art will leave the audience with a warm sense of nostalgia.

Gabby’s plan after graduating is moving into the Chicago art scene to start her career as a professional artist. Her goal is to sell her prints and original paintings at events, as well as dabbling in any artistic odd jobs that peak her interest. At some point in the future, once she is settled in, she will focus on getting her certification to start teaching K-12 art.
