Inspired by her South African heritage, Gubby started drawing animals and tribal patterns when she was only 4 years old. As she matured, her art evolved developing in to more complex surreal illustrations reminiscent of Salvador Dali and Dr. Seuss illustrations. In college, she discovered her love of metals and welding. Whilst still drawing and printmaking, her larger than life sculptures have taken her work to new dimensions. After graduating, Gubby traveled around the US searching for a new place for inspiration. After dabbling in the Venice Beach street art scene, Gubby recently moved to Yucca Valley, where she is creating her steel sculptures and jewelry.
