Gechtoff credits her artistic success to the time she spent in the Bay Area, where she was immersed in a creative community of artists, poets, and designers. Though she also found success in New York City, where she was invited to exhibit her work and teach at a number of artistic and academic institutions, she found the bias against female artists in New York City hindered her in achieving the level of success she wanted. As a teenage art student, Gechtoff was inspired by Social Realism, a movement that worked to expose the problems of the working class and poor.
