Tarryl Gabel

Tarryl Gabel, a resident of Hyde Park, NY, was born and raised on a cattle ranch on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation, North Dakota, and she is an enrolled member of the Hidasta Tribe.  She began painting at an early age and has been greatly influenced by her grandfather, a self-taught western artist, and by the native culture.

Living in the Hudson Valley now for twenty years, her influence has shifted more towards the style of the Hudson River School of Painters and her work is now centered more around the landmarks and beautiful landscapes of this region. She is currently studying plein-aire and still-life painting with Keith Gunderson.  Her work is displayed in private collections and corporate settings around the country, and now in Germany and Italy as well.

Tarryl was chosen to paint an ornament for the White House Christmas Tree. Our Country’s National Parks was the theme of the decorations this year and her ornament represented Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Home. She was invited to and attended a special reception at the White House. The ornament will remain a part of the White House’s Permanent Collection.
