Yvonne Gilbert's work runs the gamut from children’s books, postage stamps, posters, and record sleeves. The richness of her imagination reflects her life-long research and interest in the quality of materials and surfaces, from the familiar glint of an embroidered cloak to the soft unblemished skin of an infant.

Her love of fairy tales and history has resulted in the design and illustration of many books for publishers worldwide.

Yvonne lives in England.
