Gail Titus
After working as a ceramic artist for more than twenty years creating wall sculptures, Gail Titus has been focusing more extensively on pursuing her long-time interest in abstract painting. Her detailed studies of abstract painting techniques led Titus to develop works on canvas using acrylic paint and a variety of unconventional tools and techniques. Her primary focus in painting has been on textural surface development.
Gail Titus works spontaneously and intuitively without regard to realistic forms, but with a focus on textures, colors, and interesting shapes. She creates artwork by applying paint to a canvas using brushes, scrapers, water bottles, or other objects, working intuitively. As this process continues, certain areas of the painting will start to feel undeveloped. She will methodically rework those areas until the artwork gradually feels resolved. Her original artworks have been acquired by corporations and private collectors throughout the United States, Canada, and Australia.
