Rodgers combines the graphic art of silkscreening with hand painting to create original designs and portraits that have caught the eye of numerous art collectors and A-list celebrities. Born in Worcester, Massachusetts, Gail Rodgers never questioned what she wanted to be when she grew up. As a child, art was her companion and a safe haven for self expression. Whether in the backseat of a car or on the beach of Cape Cod, a piece of paper and a crayon box were never far from reach. Following high school, Rodgers received a summer scholarship to Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California and then went on to attend California Institute of the Arts in Valencia. Rodgers excelled in this environment and the experience made a lasting impression on her views about art. "I learned to value the concept, the idea, more than the execution. A pretty painting is fine, but what about it? Art, like all living things, needs a soul." At age 21, the artist started her own silkscreen company printing t-shirts out of her garage. The ensuing fifteen years found Rodgers working as a silkscreen artist creating designs for Vuarnet, Warner Brothers and other large companies. In 1993, she took a position at an art gallery in Laguna Beach and went on to become the owner of Galerie 224. #gailrodgers #silkscreen #contemporaryart
