MEET THE ARTIST

Gaby Paterno with Her Legacy Piece Permanently Displayed at the Westerly High School

Gaby is a U.S. based, multimedia artist from Hoboken, NJ and Westerly, RI. Right now, she mainly works with oil paint, watercolors, leather/ fabric paint, and pen and ink; and paints everything from portraits to custom wedding stationery; on every surface from handbags and shoes to ceramics.

 

Gaby has always had a love for art; she grew up in a home and school environment, where creativity was always encouraged; so Gaby has been creating art for as long as she could hold a pencil. 

 

In May of 2024, Gaby graduated from the University of Rhode Island, after studying Marketing and Fine Arts. Her artwork has been the recipient of a Scholastic Silver Key Art Award and she has a piece of her work is permanently on display in the Westerly High School as a part of their Legacy Piece Collection. 

 

Although it is somewhat of an uncommon practice for artists, Gaby is a multimedia artist simply because she loves to experiment and challenge herself! Working with various mediums and subjects allows her to create pieces she is always excited about! If you’d like to accompany Gaby on her art journey, feel free to follow her, across all social media @gabypaternoart
