Gabrielle Graessle

Gabrielle Graessle has been fascinated by painting and drawing since she was a child. She completed a degree in graphic design from the Zurich Art School where her first exhibitions took place as a student. During this time she made mainly black and white charcoal drawings in which she spontaneously depicted her personal imagery. For 15 years she was represented in various galleries in Switzerland, and many of her charcoal drawings hang in private and public collections. At the beginning of 2000, she and her partner emigrated to France and later to Spain, where they were involved in renovation projects for old houses. At that time, Graessle's means of expression were mainly drawings and sketchbooks. In 2015, she settled down in Andalusia and decided to immerse herself completely in her imaginary world again, and to express herself in large format, colored, intuitive and figurative paintings.
