Yoga’s parents were both artists, so art practice became a
way of life from a very early age.
She studied under Michael John Taylor for two years and
has worked as a graphic artist and illustrator. Over the past
seventeen years she has been consolidating her art practice,
exhibiting mainly in various Byron Shire Galleries and since
2001 with Schubert Contemporary Gallery. She now exhibits
with Anthea Polson Art Gallery on the Gold Coast.
Yoga works in monoprint and mixed media and explores the
relationship between the figure and the landscape.
