Ann Gale’s October exhibition at Dolby Chadwick Gallery features new portraits that capture the passage of time through shifting light, gesture, and emotion. Her long-term engagement with models allows each painting to unfold as a layered study of presence and perception. Using expressive brushwork and subtle detail, Gale explores the tension between being seen and remaining unknowable. Her work invites viewers into a quiet, intimate space where looking becomes an act of empathy and care.
