Gail Kort

Kort was born in Hackensack, New Jersey and grew up in Allendale. She was an art major at Oberlin College and attended Yale Summer of Music and Art. She is a member of the Oakroom Artists and has been involved with drawing, painting, and printmaking. Kort states, “I want to celebrate what delights and sustains me. Things like the sky, the big space of a long view, color, the pattern of plant forms; all things without price, available to everyone, but infinitely precious.” Kort often paints views of Thatcher Park.
