Yvonne was born in Wyong, New South Wales, and grew up on Sydney's North Shore. It was not until 1975 that she started to paint, studying at the Shilletto Design School. It was at this time that Yvonne experimented with texture and design which is one of the main features of her work today. Following the design course she attended classes with artist John Ogburn, concentrating on painting with oils.
At the Julian Ashton School of Art, she studied drawing techniques.
Over the years, Yvonne has developed a unique style of artwork which is mostly inspired by mosaic design. Some of her works have the look of tapestry while others convey the impression of lead light. Bold colours are of great importance and, along with a textured appearance, she tries to achieve a three dimensional effect.
Since moving to Montville in November 2002, Yvonne's work has become quite abstract with more freedom and colour which will always be part of her art.
Yvonne's work has been exhibited in many art shows in Sydney, Queensland and on Norfolk Island, where she lived and managed her own art studio for many years.
A number of her paintings have been featured on cards and postcards which have been selling on Norfolk Island and in Australia.
