Hidden talents are like a bright, sunny day in the middle of a grey winter – they’re extraordinary. When asked what most don’t know about her, Gabbi Chudzinski immediately replied that she played piano and has played since the third grade. However, that’s not the real hidden talent.

When asked what she’s most passionate about, there was no hesitation for Gabbi to answer “art.”

“[Art is] relaxing, and it’s fun and I like to be proud of my work…it’s a good reliever,” Gabbi said.

Her passion forming when she was little, her mom encouraged her to be as artistically creative as she could and Gabbi’s love for it has stuck ever since. Mainly sketching and painting, her muse is her mood itself, which she expresses through scenery and, atypically, girls.

She explains that she uses girls as canvases  “Because they’re really pretty.”

Getting serious about her art in middle school, Gabbi has considered turning her stress reliever into a career move, the idea of beauty school looming in her thoughts as she believes that makeup is a form of art and most often expresses this art on individuals other than herself.

Always having been creative, Gabbi plans on continuing her dedication to her art. While many may not know she plays piano or assume her to be a mean person when really she just has “a serious face,” she is not to be judged off what she looks like, but rather of what she creates.
