Gail Taylor is a lifelong creative who has been exploring various forms of art for over 25 years. Her true passion lies in abstract painting, where she works intuitively—without a plan—letting color, shape, and spontaneity guide each piece. For Gail, abstract art is an expression of freedom, curiosity, and emotion. She primarily works in acrylic on canvas, using playful techniques that invite experimentation and presence.
Gail’s creative journey is deeply connected to her belief in art as a form of self-care and personal growth. She shares this philosophy through her mindful art workshops where participants use creativity to explore self-awareness, release limiting beliefs, manifest their dreams, and reconnect with themselves in a safe, judgment-free space. Her workshops blend art-making with meditation, mindset work, and joyful self-expression.
I have been painting for over 20 years. I studied art at Stanford with Nathan Oliveria. I also worked with Wolf Kahn, Jordan Wolfson, Christine Lafuente, at my MFA program at The Vermont Studio Center. My wonderful teachers gave me new techniques that allowed me to find my own unique voice in art. I hope I can pass on that information and my own discoveries to my students.
