What an amazing artist! Yvonne Shukovsky is The Quechee Inn's October Artist of the Month.
Yvonne characterizes her work by "the marriage of found objects, painted passages, and paper scraps." She used corrugated cardboard, newspapers, old hymnal books, handmade and oriental papers, torn watercolors, charred papers, photographs and magazine images. In order to create her intricate collages, she employs a process of tearing, arranging, rearranging, and adhering materials. Yvonne says, "I consider the process more intuitive than intellectual and I love to incorporate disparate elements that show the effects of time on our earthly and spiritual values."
She has exhibited widely in the greater Boston area, New Hampshire and various national competitions. Her pieces can be found in many private collections nationally and internationally. She is a juried member of the New England Watercolor Society, a distinguished artist of the Concord Art Association (Mass) as well as the New Hampshire Women's Caucus for the Arts and various art associations.
Yvonne attended the Ohio University-School of Fine Arts, Boston University, B.A. and the Decordova Museum School in Lincoln, Massachusetts.
