Both sensuality and movement cascade across the canvas with Gail Gurman’s work. The shift from oil portraiture to ink and watercolor landscapes does not hinder this particular sensuality and movement, but rather only enhances the fact that the techniques of both East and West flow into common emotions present in the works. Gail’s transformation and foray into different mediums across paintings establishes the true sense of expression that the canvas provides.
Gail Gurman is a painter based in San Francisco, with a primary focus on Japanese techniques, such as Sumi inks and watercolor. She has also worked with oil paints, usually for her portraits. Gail holds a B.F.A. in Painting from George Washington University. While her portraits depict the body in context of movement, her watercolors depict San Francisco landscapes across a moving frame.
