Ceramics

Working as a solo artist exclusively in porcelain clay, I create every piece out of wheel-thrown forms, nothing is extruded or cast. My glazing process is very time-intensive with thirteen steps of layering glazes, oxides, and wax. Every piece is fired in a gas kiln. Porcelain clay is my baby with its silky texture, translucence, strength and durability. I pay very close attention to details and expect my art to stand out as one-of-a-kind.

House is on the left side of Frankton, mid-way up the hill, before Prospect. House color is caramel and orange with a double-car garage.

Watercolor Painting

I paint primarily wet-in-wet, as I love the look of transparent watercolor. I do my own matting and framing, but also mount some of my paintings on birch panels (no mats or frame). I now coat all my paintings with an archival polymer varnish ( three coats) which contains specific UV stabilizing and blocking agents. Thus, they do not require glass to prevent fading. The result is more vibrant colors and zero glass-induced reflection!! The weight is also reduced considerably.

Studio Open Year-Round By Appointment:

Mount Hood-Parkdale, OR

Take I-84 exit #64 and turn south to Hwy 35. Continue on Hwy 35 about 17 miles, going past the three Parkdale turnoffs (at Mt. Hood country Store, at Toll Bridge Park, and at Baseline Rd). Our driveway comes off Hwy 35 to the left (east) one third mile past Baseline Rd. The driveway is 0.9 miles long. Follow the signs to the studio.

Metal Work

My metal work is a combination of my many years of being a graphic artist and and from the experience of working in an art bronze foundry. My original designs are first drawn on paper, I then draw the design onto the metal and cut it out with my plasma cutter. Next I weld the images together, texture them and add a flame patina, created with oxides and nitrates. The work is then sealed with a clear-coat or wax.

Landscape Photography

As a landscape photographer specializing in images of the Columbia Gorge, I love exploring this amazing area.

Fused Glass/ Acrylic/ Watercolor

My work is created from forms of nature in a quest to answer, "What is it to be human?" I make art intuitively, emotionally and find it all consuming. Surrounded by mountains, the river and the gorge, and elements belonging to each biome become my muses and supply me with an endless amounts of inspiration. Travel to foreign countries and absorbing cultural differences also play a key role in my art work.

Pastel

I grew up with art. and after a 30 year career devoted to public policy and land use, I gave myself permission just to paint. I studied watercolor with Ruth Armitage and John Salminen and with master pastellists Albert Handel and Richard McKinley. My primary medium is pastel. I focus on color and texture and the emotional content I can convey to my viewer. I have been juried into shows sponsored by the Northwest Pastel Society, Watercolor Society of Oregon, the Hui Noe Art Center on Maui and Best of the Gorge at Columbia Center for the Arts.

Printmaking

I was educated at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice, Italy, and spent fifteen formative years immersed in European culture living in Spain, Italy, and England. I have been involved in the arts as a painter, printmaker, and arts educator for over twenty-five years. Inspiration comes from my classical European training, steeped in art history, and my appreciation for American folk art. Vivid in color, and rich in story, my work conveys the beauty and wonder of our magical world. My adventures and the stimuli of children, travel, music, foreign cultures, and the natural world inform my life's work as an artist. I am a printmaker, creating hand-pulled prints on my hand-turned printing press in my studio in Hood River where I experiment with the following printmaking techniques: monotype, monoprint, collagraph, woodcut, and solarplate etching.

Sterling Silver, Fine Silver, Gold, Gems, Pearls and Rocks to Make Jewelry

I am both an enamelist and a metalsmith. My passion is making cloisonne jewelry. Cloisonné: French for “cloison” or “cell.” A technique in which metal wires are bent to form a design; enamel is then inlaid into the resulting “cloisons.” Although this can be done in copper, contemporary cloisonné is most frequently done in silver or gold. I also love to work with rocks!! Last trip to Tucson, I bought "Garden Quartz" which have amazing inclusions in quartz rock. I let the rock talk to me, adding texture, stones, reticulated silver. Whatever I imagine will convey the "feelings of the stone".

Pastel

Contemporary images created with a variety of soft pastels on toned sandpaper. Using loose and playful application of pastel strokes and color my intentions are to paint fresh and energetic pieces. I prefer to layer the pastel adjusting the pressure to get the desired results and enjoy the “painterly” quality of the finished piece. I work in my studio from photo references and in plein air. My inspiration is derived from experiences, travels and the Pacific Northwest in which i have resided for the last 20 plus years. Of late I have been playing with nonrepresentational imagery and REALLY enjoying it and I think the work reflects my enthusiasm! In addition to participating in fine art fairs throughout the country and gallery representation, I teach pastel workshops at the Columbia Center for the Arts in Hood River, OR. and through Community Ed. I get a kick out of sharing what I have learned and I am thrilled to work with others who have a passion for pastel.

Surface Pattern Design

I tell stories through surface pattern design, produced as fabric or wallpaper. I create designs that belong within themed collections. Past collections have included tropical bird watching, critters that come alive at night, and collective nouns. I also revisit a past body of work, my small paintings of animals, and have designed many kid-friendly fabric collections around these that include the dream of each animal. My work is bright, colorful, and graphic. My process centers on story telling, as I like each theme of work to have a backstory, a tale that can be told. From there, it’s a lot of research, trial, error, discovery, and (mostly) tons of fun.

Ceramics

Clean lines and delicious color are signature to my work. I collect rocks and other found items, using them as forms for unique, organic vessels. Multiple layers of pigment build rich texture and a tactile finish that begs to be touched. I enjoy many styles and eras but most drawn to the simple functionality for which the mid-century Scandinavian designers became well recognized. I lean toward striking color combinations, stylized botanicals and a bit of free-form pencil scribbling. Studio open year-round by appointment.

Oil Paintings

Most of my process happens in my head before I ever pick up a brush or knife to put oils to canvas. An idea percolates for a while, and I have mentally painted the scene before it emerges onto canvas. I make a quick sketch directly on the canvas, and then start painting. I paint all sorts of ways—beginning with the center of interest, contrasting lights and darks, starting at the horizon line, and often simply start at the top and work down. I’ve made most of the decisions during percolation, so it works for me. My work is representational, impressionistic and abstract. It sits firmly on the fence. I love the commonplace, the familiar. The mountain peak may awe me, but the roll of the land is what moves me.

Chigirie Torn Paper

If you were to sum up this Artist you would say I am “Passionate about paper.” The lovely textures and rich colors speak to me as I tear and shape them to reveal images that delight my soul. I bring my own unique style and subject matter to the Japanese art form Chigiri-e. This technique involves tearing little pieces of handmade Thai and Japanese papers and bringing them together to create beautiful images. This year my art endeavors dive into the figurative, an exploration of people and their relationship with the world. You will be delighted by these torn paper pieces reveling in the deep reflections and action oriented fun of the people of Gorge. There will be a limited preview to my upcoming Solo Show at the Columbia Center for the Arts in August 2018 “Paper People.” While I create many things, I have a deep spiritual connection to animals and they are my most popular subject matter. I feel their eyes reveal the character of their souls and I create to breathe life into my art. Please come enjoy my comfortable climate controlled, lovely working studio. Weather permitting, this year I will also have two different level of lovely new patio outdoor viewing areas. You are going to love it! I will be demonstrating live throughout the weekend.

Mixed Media

My family has a tradition of collecting. I collect masks, toys, figures and recycled wood. The cleaning, arranging and making of objects are a process that gives me a feeling of spiritual wholeness. I wrote poetry in undergraduate school and the arrangement of letters and symbols holds a special fascination for me. Hearts, toys, figures and heads have been recurring subjects in my object making. Sailing and figure skating have been passions in my life and paper collage and oil stick drawings reflect my mannerisms from those sports in the works on paper. A great amount of inspiration for me comes from childhood memories of children’s books.

Oils / Carbon pencil / Gouache / Inks

My process is influenced by my classical training in an Atelier as a Portrait Painter. I begin paintings directly, working wet into wet rarely with underpainting but from sketches which often are developed into paintings or finished work of their own. The subtle color changes in the Klickitat and Columbia Hills' rock formations of the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area offer an opportunity daily for me to paint the views and rock formations from my studio.

Fused Glass/Polymer Clay Jewelry & Ring Dishes

My glass work is done in a kiln by fusing more than one piece of glass into one piece, working that piece with grinders and sanders then putting it back in the kiln for a final polish. The Polymer Clay also must be heated to cure the final product. But its form is already created when it comes from the oven. It is so exciting to see what is created from such humble materials.

Oil on Birch Panels

Combining roots in abstract expressionism with a deep appreciation of the spectacular landscapes here in the Gorge, my work is trending toward emotive landscape. Skies, buttes, and seasons are often recognizable, but it’s always really about the paint. Simple aspects like gesture, opacity or transparency, hue, and so on all become variables in a complex but hard to define calculus.

First and foremost, I enjoy paint as a material. I move oil paint around on gessoed birch panels with scrapers, sticks, and my hands, laying down layers, then removing and reshaping. There is a nice mix of spontaneity and planning, sort of a controlled chaos. The strength and resistance of the birch panels allow a robust, aggressive approach.

The finished pieces are combinations of 18” x 24” birch panels. The 4-panel pieces are, for example, 36” x 48".

Oil Paintings/Pit-Fired Ceramics/Author Publications

At an early age Yvonne built a log cabin in the Oregon Mountains and began her career as a painter. Strapping on a portable French easel she back packs into remote valleys and climbs up rocky mountain sides, often with a cat or small dog as a companion. Working on location during full moon nights and in blustery afternoon storms, her paintings capture and reflect the emotion of the moment. All location paintings are done ala’prima and photographs are never used. Yvonne’s studio work allows for different expressions in a range of media from surrealistic oil paintings to fine ceramic porcelain bowls. Her interactive out-door sculptures are sited in private and public collections.
