| About Gail |
Gail (actually, Abigail) Coppock grew up in the Appalachian Mountains and
Shenandoah Valley of Virginia and followed various career paths before
focusing on artwork.
After earning a bachelor's degree in literature and social sciences from Mary
Baldwin College in Staunton, Virginia and a master's in Psychology from the
University of West Georgia, she taught literature, reading and mathematics on
the high school and college levels in Virginia, Texas, and Georgia. She also
worked as a inner city case worker and as a psychologist at a training center
for people with developmental disabilities.
Meanwhile, she married Dave and they had two kids Austin and Stephen.
While being a mainly-at-home mom, she began a part-time calligraphy
business and volunteered at the boys' schools and in the community.
In the 1990's Gail began watercolor painting, teaching at The Mansfield Art
Center, and getting more into gardening. Then came handmade paper
making, jewelry mbeadng, Celtic knotwork drawing, and glass fusing. Qi
Gong, Yoga, and volunteering at Habitat are also cherished activities.
.
Gail and Dave delight in living in the sunshine and lush vegetation of Sarasota,
Florida during the winter and enjoy returning to Mansfield, Ohio for the cool
green-ness of the summer months.
She has exhibited her artwork at various venues in Northern Ohio, Georgia,
Wisconsin and Sarasota, Florida, and has mounted several solo shows: in
Georgia, Virginia, and Ohio. In addition, she has been accepted in numerous
juried exhibitions and won many awards.
She is known for her attention to detail, which is her way of expressing her
personal philosophy that the wonders of the universe can be experienced just
as profoundly in the little things as in the grand conceptions.
