Gabrielle

b. McLean


The right art changes everything.

For over thirty years, I've collaborated with interior designers and homeowners to create original, large-scale artwork that feels right at home in the spaces it was made for. From the first conversation to the final brushstroke, I bring experience, versatility, and a genuine love of the creative process to every project.

Because great art doesn't just complete a room.

It defines it.

A few kind words from the people I've worked with…

Mark Teale, Architect

“Gabrielle created a custom piece for me…and the result was stunning”

“Thank you for your talent, tireless work ethic and endless patience”

See it before it's created.

Digital concepts developed from site photography, design inspiration, and your vision allow you and your clients to visualize and refine the artwork before production begins.

Philosophy



Her work lives in some of the most remarkable private residences and curated interiors in the country, many of which she can't name, for clients she'll never mention. That discretion is part of the trust she's built over three decades.

What she can say is this: no two commissions are alike. Her fluency across oils, acrylics, encaustics, and an ever-expanding range of techniques means she meets each project on its own terms: whether that's a sweeping abstract, a site-specific installation, or something that hasn't quite been done before.

Gabrielle‘s career is built on craft, curiosity, and trusted partnerships.

Designers return to her. Their clients do too.

Process

Curiosity. Connection. Collaboration.

From first brief to final installation.


Gabrielle works closely with interior designers at the highest level of the field — not as a vendor, but as a creative partner. She's known for her ability to interpret a vision, push it further when it's welcome, and deliver work that exceeds the brief without disrupting the process.

Her clients describe her as someone who makes the ambitious feel entirely achievable.

  • "I’ve been a fan of Gabrielle McLean’s artwork for years and always dreamed of owning one of her pieces—especially her dreamy, expressive florals. When I missed out on a painting I loved, Gabrielle created a custom piece just for me, thoughtfully incorporating my preferences and space. The result is stunning—it truly makes my heart skip a beat every time I see it. I discover something new and beautiful in it every day. Gabrielle McLean is an incredible artist—highly recommend."

    KATIE LEWIS, Private Collector

  • "I have a piece of artwork by Gabrielle in my home that my wife and I look at every day — there is no price someone could pay to take it from us. As a licensed architect in California, I've learned so much from her about art, design, and how to help people appreciate the joy both can bring to their lives. She is one of the most fascinating people you'll ever meet."

    MARK TEALE, Founder of TEALE ARCHITECTURE

  • "Gabrielle is one of a kind. She takes the time to truly understand each client — their stories, their emotions, their experiences — and transforms that into art that goes far beyond decoration. I've watched clients moved to tears by what she creates. If you're looking for artwork that truly resonates, Gabrielle is the artist to trust."
