Artist
Gail Page
Gail
Page creates colorful, whimsical, joyful art. Whether it's paintings,
books, illustrations, floorcloths, sticks, sculptures, or murals for hospitals, elementary
schools or orphanages, Gail's art appeals to children and adults alike.
In
Gail Page's world people fly, birds wear building hats and dogs wear
cat masks and pour afternoon tea. Tea pots are a favorite theme, representing
warmth, nourishment and social comfort.
Her personal experience with the healing powers of color led to a
series of abstract energy circles and her background in fashion and
textile design is apparent in her wonderful, functional "floorcloths"
which have been featured in Good Housekeeping Do It Yourself Magazine.
Gail
lives in the woods of Maine with her artist husband Rob Shetterly
and their dog Jacoby.

Gail Page is the author and illustrator of two children's books about Bobo the dog. Published by Bloomsbury U.S.A. Children's Books, New York, NY.
