Positivity, self-care, journey and femininity are at the heart of the themes explored in the works of contemporary artist Yvette St. Amant. "Mandalas, botanicals, and intuitive, free- flowing lines are common elements in my art with the intent to give visual therapy and positivity to those who view it. The inspiration behind my creations come from my love of home de¿cor, as well as my personal connection with nature. The desire to bring beauty from the outdoors inside the home is also an important focus in my art. My work is a combination of acrylic, and ink, using washes and stylistic lines on crisp white backgrounds to keep a clean, fresh look." Throughout her career, Yvette has worked as an art teacher, judge for juried art exhibitions, managed and implemented various art related outreach programs and cultural projects in both Canada and the United States. Yvette has found her niche producing decorative arts for the home de¿cor industry while also producing large scale artworks for local and international collectors via the Laguna Art Gallery, California, and The Art Department, Scottsdale, Arizona. Canadian born, now residing in United States, Yvette is a full-time professional artist, passionately inspiring others. She has spent the last several years connecting and collaborating with artists around the globe. Her art is stocked by retailers including JC Penny Home, Macey's, Sears, Urban Art Loft, Art de Coeur, Wayfair, Art.com, Houzz, Overstock.com and Allposters.com and many of her current works can be found on her website www.yvettestamant.com and IG @yvettestamant
