For the last 6 years, building a career in fine art and illustration has been the main focus for Gabriella. Opting for a self-guided, ever-expanding curriculum, she has studied around the world and attended several workshops with renowned painters and illustrators. Starting in 2022, Gabriella began moving her practice outside of the studio and into the world of urban sketching and has been obsessively drawing from life ever since. Her favorite style of tattooing is illustrative and energetic, ranging from bold, graphic illustrations to delicate, pencil drawn pieces.
