Art Lovers, Welcome to Gail’s Gallery - This is a huge opportunity to stay in a home in the Metro Atlanta area with some interesting historic value! The home is setup in very much the same way it was when Gail Glass was creating her award winning art in the home. It is a rare opportunity to experience some of Marietta’s history from an award winning artist. The home is in a great location for all of Atlanta’s attractions as well as Marietta’s sports complexes. Truist Park, The Atlanta Braves, Whitewater, Six Flags over Atlanta and Downtown Atlanta are all within easy reach of the home. Here is some history of the home:
In this house Gail and Jack raised three kids, hosted five grandkids, along with a cat (“Topeka”) and two dogs (“Thunder” and “Grits”). Jack was a Georgia high school football official, worked nearby at Lockheed and was often out on the golf course.
Meanwhile, once the kids were school-aged, in the early 1970s Gail began art study, with classes and tutelage from her mentor, a regionally-prominent artist (Robert Meredith). A portrait of Gail by Robert hangs over the stairwell, and his log cabin studio was the subject of one of her later paintings (over the easy chair). Gail’s “breakout” was at a Marietta Art Club regional art show in the old Marietta Square in 1973… her first-place ribbon for “Riding Boots and Hat” led to several months on display at City Hall, and invitations to other art shows around northern Georgia. Subsequent years saw more awards, sales of paintings and art community involvement by Gail in the Atlanta area, with her most active period up until the mid-2000s.
After Gail and Jack’s time in the home, a number of her favorite and/or stored works were found in or around the house – these are now back “on show” as they might have been seen in a show or gallery in the 1980s or 1990s, many with explanatory placards. If you look carefully at the worn linoleum floor in her downstairs former studio (now a bedroom), you can still see the remnant paint drops from her sessions. Gail was encouraged by a father who was active in decoupage in the Midwest (1950s-60s), and she in turn encouraged creative expression by her grandchildren (some are on display in the downstairs “family room”).
