GABRIELLE DE WINTER

Gabrielle’s work is inspired by historical pattern design and her Chinese/European heritage. Each design begins by hand, drawing from natural forms, and ornamental motifs, with a focus on creating patterns that feel both timeless and livable.

She is a licensing artist, self represented. She also will take on a few select commissions a year.
