Yvonne Wells has always followed a path of creative pursuits and now moves between two creative places- painting and drawing Her paintings are opulent, dramatic and intensely colourful, while her drawings are conversely, free , light and quite subtle.
Yvonne is inspired by the drama and earthy tones of old Renaissance paintings. Her paintings , however , are intensely coloured, hyper exposed, organic images that drift out of the darkness. Her drawings focus more on wildlife both here in Australia and overseas.
She is a curious artist and dabbles in many mediums and techniques. "Creating luscious , rich coloured paintings and drawings that vibrate with life, is always a joy for the soul. "
Yvonne enjoys the process of creating all of her works. The excitement she feels when inspired by the subject matter, buoys her through those challenging times of a painting when all looks lost, only to find with persistence that it was there all along. Yvonne has also created works through commissions on canvas , on paper and as murals ( wallart).
Her past pieces can be found on her website.
