Stronger Painting

Gabriela Azar Schreiner is an Argentinian born Australian painter based in Mentone. Her compositions are instantly noticeable for their captivating colour palette and dynamic brushstrokes. Infused with unmistakable presence and energy, they light up every room in which they are displayed. Gabriela views painting as sheer passion and feeling. Through her process she doesn’t seek to depict a set idea or subject, but instead lets scenes and dynamic movement emerge organically. Her intrinsic ability to express herself visually is evident in the wide range of emotions she conveys with her canvases. Whether through soft swathes of colour, or paint applied so thick it retains its original gloss, the works take on an emotional power that is at times hectic and dramatic, and other times flowing and expressive. Barely contained to the confines of the canvas, Gabriela’s paintings are works that impact viewers on both physical and emotional levels.
