Yvonne works as a craftsperson, an artist and a photographer. Being a lifelong lover of natural history she takes her inspiration from the environment – birds, flowers, the sea, rocks and the coastline. Yvonne produces work in pen, ink and charcoal, handmade greeting cards and bookmarks which both incorporate her hand-coloured images of the island’s birds and flowers. Yvonne hand makes paper from a variety of materials, including, each autumn, a limited quantity of “Stornoway Woods Paper” which incorporates the fallen leaves from the largest wooded area on the Isle of Lewis. Yvonne also hand makes silk paper which she then uses with her cards, bookmarks and collages. Other items available are: handmade wedding invitations to order, decorated boxes, 3D decoupage pictures, art prints.
