Gabrielle Marie Luo

Gabrielle Marie Luo is an artist, educator, and researcher whose work explores cyclical embodiment through painting, weaving, poetry, ritual, and women’s wisdom practices. Rooted in reverence for the living rhythms of the body and earth, her work weaves together creativity, feminine life cycles, ecological awareness, and contemplative practice.

She holds a PhD in East-West Psychology, where her artistic research dissertation, Cyclical Attunement, explored creativity as an embodied, relational, and cyclical state of consciousness through art-making, menstrual and lunar cycle awareness, and ecological attunement. Her artistic practice integrates natural materials, cyclical tracking, movement, writing, and ritual as pathways into deeper forms of listening and creative inquiry.

Gabriella teaches courses in mental, emotional, and spiritual health, yoga, and contemplative practice at California State University, and is currently teaching art and embodied creative practices in China. Her work bridges artistic research, education, embodiment, and feminine spirituality through both academic and community-based spaces.

She is the co-founder of Mystical Woman and Mystical Mama, evolving educational and retreat spaces devoted to cyclical embodiment, fertility awareness, prenatal and postpartum care, women’s spirituality, and the sacred transitions woven throughout a woman’s life. Through online courses, retreats, women’s circles, and continuing education offerings, her work supports women in reconnecting with creativity, intuition, embodiment, and inner wisdom.

Her paintings, weavings, jewelry, and poetic works emerge through practices of cyclical remembrance and relationship with the more-than-human world. She currently lives between landscapes, seasons, motherhood, and artistic research — continuing to explore creativity as a living, relational process.

My art can be found in galleries, homes, restaurants, healing spaces, intentional communities and offices. They can be intimate or expansive, offer abundance, protection, or introspection. I believe this inner dialogue can lead to deep introspective processing and clarification in one’s life. Inner and outer harmony reverberate from this place of creating and reflecting.

I also available for custom work— I love to create pieces that have a specific intention with places in nature that are meaningful to you.
