Description: Paint/Print
Yvonne took her degree in Fine Art Printmaking at Staffordshire University , and then worked in the printing industry as a graphic designer and printer. She subsequently went on to paint murals for private clients. Over the past two years she has returned to painting and printmaking and her work has been shown in exhibitions in Harrogate, Leeds, Chichester and Hull.
Working in paint and print, her work captures the particularity of different places. Her fascinations include permanent features such as rock formations, and transient ones such as beach flotsam. Her landscapes contain the traces of man-made change, such as half-hidden rock carvings and abandoned artefacts. And there are always the birds …..
Yvonne paints mainly in oil on board, mixing different textures and collaged elements. Realistic elements are incorporated within a more abstract scheme of colour and composition. In her printmaking, similar themes are developed, exploiting the clean lines and block colour of linocuts, and the intricate, fluid surfaces of collagraphs.
