Gail Peck uses her artwork as a vehicle for posing questions, creating awareness, and for making strong statements on various social issues. Her creative process is anchored in an intuitive, consistent approach to being present in the now. Gail lives immersed in the flow of creation, slotting in what comes into her stream of consciousness (physically, emotionally and/or intellectually) into her artwork. Her painting, entitled Gustav Quilt I, won the 1st place in 2004 in the “Introspective Images” show in Bethesda, MD. As a multi-disciplinary artist, her assemblage, photography and paintings have been shown in the National Cathedral, the Sewall-Belmont Museum and House, in addition to multiple art centers, and galleries throughout North America.
At the age of 53 while Gail was pursuing her AA degree she came down with an illness that was mysterious and lasted for more than one year. In a bid to distract Gail from the pain her husband gave her a pocket digital camera as a Christmas gift. Her husband knew that she had always liked to take photos, but money and time were tight while raising four sons. She got hooked into photography and started producing spectacular pieces of art and has been able to attract a huge following of fans. Today, she’s among the best photographers in the U.S. Her work has appeared in the Washington Post and is held in multiple private collections throughout the United States. When he’s not in the studio, she enjoys watching NOVA, reading, and hiking around the world with her family.
