Hayley Gaberlavage is inspired by a love for fashion, furniture and modern art. Her contemporary approach to a subject matter results in a unique interpretation of figures, abstracts and landscapes. Oftentimes, her paintings move from the representational to the abstract; a three-dimensional object becomes a simple two-dimensional pattern. Her experimentation with color relationships complements these abstractions. Ultimately, each work is playful, alive and unique. rnrnA native of Opelika, Ala., Gaberlavage graduated from the University of Alabama in 2000, where she studied interior design. She continued her studies at Savannah College of Art and Design in the Master of Fine Arts program in painting. While in Savannah, she opened OLIVE, a gallery designed for emerging artists. As a painter, she receives commissions from commercial clients, galleries and personal collectors throughout the United States. The artist currently lives in Atlanta, Ga.
