She holds an MFA from the University of Massachusetts in Amherst and had also studied in Europe. Her painting often utilizes the Renaissance tradition of egg tempera, oil paints, and glazes, along with an acrylic pouring medium. As a result, these portraits combine traditional representations with the random and expressive effects of high-flow paint. In addition, Gabriel employs collages in various interpretations of a subject, synthesizing realism and abstraction into a cohesive, expressive whole.
Gabriel had exhibited in a variety of high-profile exhibitions, including the recent XII Florence Biennale in Italy. A one-person retrospective of her work was held at the Rogue Gallery and Art Center in Medford, Oregon.
Her work has also been exhibited at the Schneider Museum of Art, Ashland, OR; Denver Art Museum, CO; De Cordova Museum, MA; Oakland Museum, CA; Herbert F. Johnson Museum, Cornell University, NY and more.
Her art has received numerous awards. Some notable ones are the First Award, Henry Hopkins, All California Art Exhibition,; Finalist in Artist's Magazine, and the Jurors Choice award in the Human Form exhibit, Newport Visual Art Center, OR.
Gabriel's work was selected for an extended loan in the Executive Chairman's office at the National Endowment for the Arts in Washington, D.C.
Gabriel has also been awarded a Massachusetts University Fellowship, as well as a Haines Foundation grant. Her work is featured in Calyx, Studio Visit, and American Artwork magazine.
