With Hope Gangloff's paintings, the scale of her work contributes to its emotional resonance. Gangloff has attributed her comfort with large-scale canvases to her early experiences painting by her father’s barn, where she learned to think and create expansively. The size of her paintings invites immersion, enveloping the viewer in her world and forcing them to confront the details that might otherwise be overlooked. The larger-than-life format amplifies the intimate moments she captures, creating a paradoxical sense of closeness through distance.
