Denise Yates is a multidisciplinary artist based in Ashland whose work explores the quiet atmosphere of the landscapes of the Pacific Northwest and Northern California. Drawing from photographs taken while traveling local backroads and along the I-5, she captures fleeting moments of light, weather, and distance. Her watercolor and gouache landscapes emphasize mood over detail evoking misty hills, open fields, and expansive skies. Denise comes to watercolor after many years of exploring art through textiles and photography.
