Art is my essential balance, and documenting my everyday experiences allows me to deeply focus on the subtle, often overlooked little things. What may appear mundane or ordinary to some becomes a rich source of inspiration, enabling me to explore delicate color shifts and intricate textures. My favorite mediums include gouache, wax pastel, and oils, each offering unique possibilities for expression. Recently, I have also discovered a new passion in paper collage, which continues to expand my creative horizons.

As both an artist and a teacher, I find great joy in supporting others on their own creative journeys. It is my sincere goal to share not only my creative process but also the personal explorations that shape my visual perception and artistic growth.

Yolanda obtained her Bachelor's of Fine Art in Painting from Sierra Nevada University in Incline Village, NV. She has taught art to children and adults for the last 25 years. Credentials also include being married to Mr. Adventure and being the mother of two boys.

She is currently teaching in- person workshops. She works daily out of her home studio in Phoenix, Arizona and South Lake Tahoe, CA.
