Gabriella Bailey (born 1999) is a figurative painter. She grew up in Dorset and is currently based in Oxford. Her main subjects are figure compositions and still lives, which she usually paints directly from life in the studio, whether it be an arrangement of objects and flowers or a sitter before a linen backdrop; she also works from quick sketches made out and about. Seeking above all to capture the presence of her surroundings, Gabriella tends to work in an immediate and intuitive manner: her paintings are characterised by rapid brushstrokes, simplified form, and a joyful freshness of colour which she uses to create light and space.
Gabriella held her first exhibition ‘A World Away’ at Pembroke College, Oxford, in 2023. She is represented by Thomas Spencer Fine Art and White Space Art, Totnes, and has exhibited with the New English Art Club at the Mall Galleries, London. She has also co-founded Stinsford Studios in Dorset.
